Trip report URL:
Comments: 2.5 hours camp to camp from what is a great camp spot right at the base of the canyon. Nice, short skinny narrows with some easy stemming. The pothole at the top of the last sequence was totally dry, we used a sandtrap anchor and the geometry was perfect. The keeper pothole 30 feet below the anchor was a moderately difficult escape, water was about 3 feet below the lip - we were able to escape by having the tallest member in the group (chest deep on this 6'5" individual - other options may need to be used if there is no one this tall in the group) boost out the shortest, then use an etrier to assist the rest of the group out.
