Trip report URL:

Comments: Started hiking at the Hall Beckley approach trail rather than Deukmejian to shorten the walk back to the car at the end. Great views over the city on the approach which took 1:50. Drop-in was steep but the canyon floor had relatively little brush and was easy to travel down. There were some interesting downclimbs including one where a network of tree limbs took on jungle gym functionality. Did a total of three rappels, one of which was on an extremely thick fixed line at the end of the Sutton steps -- it barely fit through the Sqwurel. Intentionally continued downcanyon past the exit point shown on the GPX, in an interesting narrows section with frequent dams. Descent time 2:00.
