Comments: there's a fairly easy class 5 move to get over a chockstone. the water is apparently spring-fed and was flowing with clean water when I was there. I used some mid-grade trickery to get over two pools but was stymied at the big one and it was chest-deep. time includes Ladder & Micro done at a leisurely, if not downright lackadaisical, pace. Fish creek was quite dry which made for easy walking on the sun-baked dirt.

Comment: Combined with Ladder. I usually want more raps on a canyon route, but this plus Micro is pretty enough to be totally worth seeing. Fresh webbing at the single rap. Ascending is not really hard - feet on cliff and kinda low angle most of the way. Definitely protect your rope at the sharp edge - even alone, I was glad I did. Pools of lukewarm, clean water up to 4’ deep in Micro, which also contains a boulder obstacle that was slightly challenging but manageable alone and in wet hiking shoes (I’m not a great climber).

Comment: Combined Ladder Canyon and Micro Canyon for a short but sweet day in the Superstitions. Time reflects both canyons at a leisurely but steady pace. Hiked up over the ridge to see Micro Canyon from the top down. Pretty cool little canyon, but be ready to wade through some water. I was able to avoid the first deep pool by shimmying along the wall DCR but the second big pool was unavoidable.
