Comments: Big thanks to route developer(s) for getting this one set up so quickly. Fun night run, exciting to see how much the canyon has changed, and to get in it with that much flow. Bolt ladder anchor was not used, instead a meat anchor was provided and the two most experienced team members assisted each other in down climbing.

Comment: Parked near the exit of LSA and took a Lyft to Chantry Flats. The firebreak approach took just over an hour and the highlight was seeing a bobcat, the first time I've seen one in the wild. I dropped in at (34.196, -118.039) which is the "LSA 3.0" gully per Willie's nomenclature. It had a lot of scree and downclimbs at first but got more verdant and pretty lower down. I did one 100' multi-step rappel at a beautiful junction of three waterfalls near the confluence with LSA. Descent of the gully took a little under an hour. LSA was a lot of fun in high flow. I didn't need to use the new aid climbing anchor immediately after the pothole but stayed on rappel from the previous anchor while stemming over the boil.
