Comment: I had fond memories of this canyon, but I didn't remember too much of the canyon and blanked out the approach and de-proach?, which apparently I blocked out of my memory. In reality, I wasn't as tired as last year at the end, but the approach/exit do take a minute.
But for all that, the canyon definitely makes an impression, in a great way. Lots of great rock quality and rock hopping and downclimbs built in. Just a fun canyon.

Comment: Super easy approach that we could have shaved off another 30 minutes if I wasnt so tired from the previous week! From the top of the saddle we picked our way down the slope on the left. From the bottom it was plain that you should pick your way down more directly to the right.

Comment: A bit of a bottleneck with the big rappel combo with the small rappel right after. Fun short canyon with a fun little simul last rappel at the end. Fun bit of scrambling up the canyon on the approach. Otherwise, pretty chill canyon.

Comment: First Canyon in death valley either of us had run. Very nice views and drops. Approach was straight forward without any big obstacles. Rap 3 had an interesting pull as the webbing must be held in tension so as not to droop and make for a more difficult pull. Rap 4 was the best in terms of beauty of the rock. Worst part of the canyon is the creek bed walk from the car to the canyon. Great canyon to kick the door in at Death Valley!
