Comments: 2 decent downclimbs, but most of the obstacles can be avoided which made the canyon less interesting. Bring a rope sheath for the last rappel, it's a rope slicer! We managed with an elbow pad to protect the rope.

Comment: None of the raps with optional bypasses were set. All others had good anchors due to the team that went through a week before us. Nice and shaded on the hike up early AM

Comment: We did the sneak approach (yellow on the KML) which drops you a short distance upstream of the money rappel. 2:30 approach. West Fork had many interesting downclimbs and incredibly beautiful rock formations such as layers of blue marble. Rappel details have been added to the beta. Some anchors were usable without modification while others needed webbing swapped or were entirely vanished and needed new cairns.
