Trip report URL:
Comments: rapped in from a big tree (with existing webbing) RDC right into the chamber with the cairn for the big rap. this rap is ~85'. Probably a more pleasant route than dropping in higher. Very little snow till the lower slot and then there was several feet in places. Webbing looked pretty good, we didn't replace anything. The "cairn" anchor at the big rap now consists primarily of a large partially-buried boulder and is looking less like a cairn these days.

Comment: dry and warm. webbing looked fine at the cairn anchors and the final pinch anchor. recommended to test the cairns with full body weight before committing to these drops. definitely wise to stagger your group at sketchier parts of the exit. a great canyon!
