Trip report URL:

Comments: First partial decent. Was surprised flows were still high a month after initially scouting it. Bypassed a number of feature due to flow, and pre-bolted some drops for next time. Exited after triple drops. CFS on the gage was ~95 CFS. Great day with sunshine in the canyon for most of the day.

Comment: Great day with pretty low flow. Couldn’t find some bolts. If you want a backup, bring a Petzl Pulse. There aren’t any backup bolts placed yet. R13 has an “interesting” bolt placement. All existing bolts have the Tebylon Ring. So check those out before you go. Fun day with some route finding and lots of bushwhacking.

Comment: First full descent. Flows were lower than the first partial descent a month earlier, but we were surprised how spicy they still were. This canyon will not likely not dry up as quickly as we first thought. River gauge was reporting 55-65cfs.

Great day out with great people. Completed the canyon, bolting all noteworthy drops. Amazingly fun rappels in the flow. Confirmed a ~15ft jump into the deep pool beneath "mini-davis".
