Comments: Didn't need to replace any anchors. 2-3 have noticeable UV fading, but still serviceable for this trip. Rappel near the end had a pothole with water; fairly easily avoided. Many anchors are right at the lip which makes for good pulls, but would make a Fiddlestick difficult (including the 150'). I only counted 14 rappels.

Comment: We especially enjoyed Sand Witch canyon! It was quite scenic to descend through the rock strata and the canyon offered some interesting features such as small potholes to stem over and a rabbit hole. I will adjust the number of rappels as our team counted 16 with maybe 3-4 being optional for skilled downclimbers.
