Comments: Great little canyon, 2 rappels hard starts but nothing crazy, setup a Zipline for the 2nd rap , one of our team dropped a figure 8 in the belly high water and couldn't retrieve, then a bunch of 2ater pocket obstacles 2 couldn't be avoided and the last was a bridging challenge that only 1/3 of us managed to conquer Would be great with hose canyon and run both in one day

Comment: Scenic approach. About 1h to the start of the drainage. Not too brushy. Removed / replaced R1 webbing and re-located anchor for cleaner pull. Left R2 webbing be as it was still in decent condition. Pool at the base of R2 was about stomach-depth at the midpoint. All other water was avoidable. Majority of the canyon is nontechnical, but pretty.

    Comment: I pulled the rope after the first drop because the beta said only one drop. Fortunately there were plenty of anchor spots and anyway ended up digging up webbing while I was trying to clean up a pinch point. Put an anchor on a pinch point at the 1st drop.

    Pool was belly deep at the bottom of the 2nd drop and unavoidable unless you're a really good climber.




    Ok
