Comments: Canyon is almost the same as previous years. Webbing is all good. Pothole slide is still good. The r4 which is bypassed dcr via a long slab is now much more fun than previous years.
Go half way down the slabs and then cut back into the creek.the second half of the falls is now a pretty fun slide. And then just downclimbs dcl to get out of that pool past where the old stainer was.(There are still logs there but not as spooky looking)

Comment: The beta for R3 is confusing as the creek turns DCR into a turbulent pool and then into a large strainer. It makes sense to stay DCR on rappel and avoid the lower terrace of the falls in higher water. We were able to easily climb out of the pool DCL in lower flows.

Comment: Did a Chinook-Deer-Panther triple. Deer was short and sweet with some great features and rappels and some tempting slide like features. Only downside was the debris in some of the features that created small hazards and kept some of them from living up to their full potential, but the hazards were easy to avoid.

Comment: Canyon one of a triple canyon day! What a lovely canyon. Such easy access & exit. Both a rooster tail to rap through and a deep pothole to jump into. Very beautiful, reminds me of parts of Thornton, minus the persistent nuisance obstacles. Will definitely be running this again in future.
