Trip report URL:
Comments: Possible first descent of the main fork on Covell Creek as no anchors or signs of previous passage were found. Access is excellent and this opens more options in the Covell complex. Anchors are a little thin in the upper main fork; the lack of significant vegetation along the sides indicates that this creek can really rip from time to time. Main fork joins the west fork below the confluence, so we enjoyed the narrows and rappelling Covell Creek Falls. If you have time, it's fun to continue down-canyon and hit some of the smaller drops too.
