Comments: Ended up doing 6 rappels. Replaced most of the webbing on knot chock on tricky start rappel. It's backed up on a finger sized rock loop that may be well below water line in normal conditions. Low water for us, filtered at the last pool which was the only swim. No easy starts on rappels in the canyon though, all somewhat awkward. Didn't really need wetsuits in the 85 degree heat and low water.

Comment: One or two cold, borderline swimmer potholes. On this particular trip the final pothole was the closest water available between Crack Baby x Kanab Creek and Rattlesnake Canyon x Kanab Creek. Note that this is an observation only and should not be relied upon as a guarantee of future conditions or water availability. Research before you go!

Comment: Seven or so hours from the car park at the top of the Flipoff route to the junction of Jumpup Canyon and Kanab Creek. There is a good trail on top of the redwall when approaching the canyon. A few deep pools despite water level being very low - anchors mostly in good shape - many awkward starts to rappels.
