Comments: The pothole referenced in the printed beta is all but dry on the exit side and was quite the challenge to get out of solo. I had hard fixed all the drops above it to allow retreat in the event I couldn’t solve it, so when I did get through it (using two potshots and my pack) I then had to ascend two drops and pull three ropes before I could continue downcanyon.

It’s probably still easy enough with an assist from a partner, but do be aware it’s currently as close to keeper mode as it likely ever gets. The first person out will need a boost and the last person left in it will need a handline.
