Comments: The log on the short rappel at the end of the narrows section is no longer present. At that short rappel, there is a webbing anchor on a chockstone that is marginal. Other webbing may not be in good condition and best practice is to bring a fiddlestick to minimize rope grooves or if existing webbing is in poor condition. The bottom of the 160' rappel is dry.

Comment: 4 hours car to car at a moderate pace, fiddle sticked all rappels, top rappel had no webbing but plenty of good trees to work with. Water in slot section is easily avoidable with some easy stemming. We cleaned up some old webbing from the last downclimb/rappel in the slot section. Recommend meat anchor all but last and then spot or capture last person down. The useful log is back at the bottom of this drop. Big rappel was completely dry, no water or mud to worry about. Some newer webbing is here but rope groves are developing so we still chose to fiddle stick it. Found webbing at next two rappels but again opted for fiddle due to rope groves. Down climbing section In the granite was east and very scenic.
