Comments: Days one and two can be combined, and the final day is quite fast, only a few hours camp to car. We had mild to warm weather and only put on wetsuits for a few hours in Upper Gravel, 3mm shorties worked well here. We likely could have done without wetsuits if we were careful at which points in the day we ended up in the various narrows.

Water sources were frequent and water carries were never an issue while in canyon except for the transition day between Long and Gravel (which we started early to avoid some of the heat). All webbing anchors were in tolerable condition though we did use a variety of ghosting techniques for 6+ rappels throughout gravel.
