Introduction[edit]
This was a canyon discovered & led by Rick Kent. And was a First Descent trip. Rick named it after the "deadman anchor" we needed to use to get out of the canyon. I never posted an album for this canyon, and now am doing so to provide beta for the Ropewiki Canyoneering site. Completed this canyon 3-15-09. Was completed with group shown in Trip Report below.
