Comments: I updated the beta. The creek bushwhack is solid devils club. R1 is challenging due to the mess of vegetation, fallen trees, branches, loose rocks, and more loose rocks. R1 extended hanging anchor is a 6 mil cord that should be replaced with a static rope or relocated. The extended anchor should not be replaced with webbing due to the bounciness of webbing. You don't want to be bouncing on this rappel.

Comment: The height of the falls looking from the base looks misleading and shorter than the actual distances. Make sure you have a rope that is 300' or greater. We brought 2 x 300s, 2x150 ropes. We made sure both 300 ft ropes reached the bottom of the 1st and 2nd rappel before pulling down the first rappel. It is recommended to test the pull on the first rappel.

During some sections of the last rappel, you will be directly in the water course. It feels like it's pouring heavy rain on you but the force of the water does not push you down.
