Comments: Lots of water in the canyon, mostly avoidable. Trickle flow. First pool is about 5' deep, as verified by our guinea pig. Some avoided the water, others embraced it. Good time in the canyon. Webbing looks good.

Comment: Small trickle of water, very clear pools, water was cool but not too cold. The warm day made the cold water nice. We replaced all the webbing as we went through..

Comment: Super dry, was able to avoid the two big pools after R1 and R2. Downclimbed R4. The rabbit hole at R3 was neat and certainly the most memorable rappel. There's a short but fun (optional) elevator downclimb on the approach, although it drops you into some very unfriendly plant territory. Will probably come back here next time there's some flow!

Comment: Back again but with low flow this time. Cool water. No wetsuits. Alage in parts mostly that can be avoided. No wetsuit needed. Bushwacking approach. Canyon never disappoints with the canyon views, rappels, and downclimbs. Find small entrance down into and under chockstone rappel. Easy exit with more to soak in. Team of 2. 3 hrs car to car. 1hr approach, 1.5 hr descent, 30 min exit.

Comment: Beautiful little canyon with flow. Low effort for some memorable rappels. Anchors looked good. Quick exit. If you haven't done it.... Do it!

Comment: Driest and most algae that I have seen this one in a long time. Anchors are all good. No anchor currently after the rabbit hole rappel for the down climb.

Comment: 3 rappels - Parking is convenient, arrive early if on the weekend - approach is poorly marked - you go all the way to the top, shoot for the saddle - avoid GPS track and go wide right to avoid tricky downclimb - follow watercourse to the start - water was flowing, it was truly beautiful, especially at the first rap where we stopped for a snack - donned wetsuits (not required in hindsight) - easy to avoid pools - final rappel is tricky to start, have to swing over the edge - exit is a bit tedious if water is present, it takes careful foot placement to avoid slipping and potentially getting hurt.

Comment: Light flow and clear pools throughout the canyon. Removed excess webbing from large but fractured and fragile arch high RDC near R1.

Comment: 2 raps. Flowing a bit but we didn't even get our feet wet. Swimmer pool was pretty easy to bypass by rapping to pocket RDC and climbing up and around from there. All webbing was good. We were moving at a very slow pace.

Comment: Canyon was in fun mode! No flow but very full pools of crystal clear, icey cold water. Fairly deep swimmer at bottom of R1 and some shallow pools at the bottom of the rest. The pools were very cold and, since it was windy, a rain jacket would have been nice, but it wasn't unbearable without one. Unecessary anchors built right next to 3 of the already existing anchors were removed.

Comment: Extended R1 anchor with the existing webbing. The pool below this rappel was murky and I did not check depth, though water levels were very low and I'd wager it was less than waist deep. With some careful footwork I was able to avoid this pool staying along the wall RDC. Downclimbed both R2 and R4. Didn't notice an anchor by R4, though all other webbing was in good condition. The rabbit hole down to R3 was lots of fun, but this was the only noteworthy rappel. I may have actually enjoyed the hike out of this canyon more than the technical section... Definitely looking forward to returning when there's some good flow.

Comment: All anchors looked good. Did it in 3 raps, but could have done it in 2. Took a lot of time teaching and learning skills. Small trickle of water flowing through.
