Comment: Having such a short approach and exit makes this a wonderful winter canyon. We couldn't find anchors at R1 or R4/P2 (lots of snow/ice) so we rigged retrievable. The ice and snow made the approach, exit, and climb up to R4 more difficult but made for a fun and character building experience. Would highly recommend!

    Comment: An amazing winter canyon! Roadside, low elevation, easy approach/exit and with two big, fun waterfalls with great flow and rebelays giving fantastic lines through the flow. We were joking that this is 3 stars in summer and 5 stars in winter, and it's really true. Approach took us 25 minutes with minor routefinding and exit took us 15 minutes. A very enjoyable day!
