Comments: More long ropes would have sped us up immensely. The last four rappels are long. We used the 300 foot rope on three of them. We would have brought two or more 300's had we known the sequence. There are currently three bolts that are missing nuts/hangers/rings. I'm not sure if they are 3/8" or 10mm, but the next group through should bring extras. If I were to do this one again, I would for sure bring a drill and plan on adding a number of bolts. The KML file is absolutely fantastic and is spot on for where the exit trail goes. Without it, we would have lost the trail an uncountable number of times up the exit. If I were to do this again, I would spend the night at the campsite at the river. It is very nice and would make for a more enjoyable trip. Once this route is bolted at all major drops and if a group brings enough long ropes, you could make it through much, much faster than we did. This is a very nice route and will be extremely nice in the future after a few more teams add to it. If you really wanted to make it nicer for everyone, bring in some pruners and cut out the spikey plants in the first half mile!

Comment: -45-50 mins from camp to descend - 3 - 3.5h - exit (a lot of ropes there) - we found only 3 bolted station and one webbing around the tree, we used a lot retrievable stations - we did meat anchors couple times, and the last person jumped - one really fun slide - 5 mm wetsuit was perfectly fine for me, but guys said 4mm is fine for them
