Comments: Excellent canyon in great conditions! We managed to skip a decent part of the approach by parking at the first switchback of Clear Lake Road and taking the flat trail to Old Wooden Bridge, which was much of a boon to us flatlanders.

We needed to rebuild about half the anchors, so don't lay much faith in the anchor descriptions. There are lots of trees to anchor from if you need to do it again, and many can be set on the edge or out of the flow entirely. Water was enjoyable and minimally difficult to deal with.

Comment: All the webbing was good on the raps completed. Bailed out at rap 5 or 6 due to weather and being solo. It was a risk/reward decision. I usually scale back when I am solo. I would have completed if I had another person with me. I was already satisfied with the awesome descent. The canyon is very beautiful. The high flow is a lot of fun. Here is a trip report that contains footage of the descent:
