Comment: While still a nice place in a remote setting, I found this canyon very underwhelming. Very muddy, very short, not a deep slot. Rap one can easily be walked around on canyon left. Rap two is off a huge fallen dead tree 15'. Rap 3 is off the jammed log still, 90'. It took more time to wash the clay off my shoes and ropes than it took to descend the technical portion. A worthy canyon if your are a core canyoneer, but consider driving a little further for better slots in the area.

Comment: Great canyon! Didn't seem very heavily traveled but recent anchors were present on raps 2 and 3. We relied on the beta on Canyon Collective and found some parts were out of date. It took considerably longer due to the approach being a 3ish mile hike up from the parking area. The approach included a couple rather challenging scrambles: up a 10' dryfall and up an 8' rock face (both crumbly). Only cell signal was on the rim before dropping in (AT&T). No water in the canyon but plenty of mud made stemming traction difficult. Our 200' rope reached the ground of rap 3 with 1-2 feet to spare but be prepared to add to the pull side. A folding shovel would be advised in case the anchors on raps 2 and 3 need to be backed up with deadmen or replaced- plenty of rocks and sand to work with.
