Introduction

Located between Humperdink and Buttercup, Dread Pirate Roberts is an easy approach with a scramble down loose scree to a really interesting section that includes one large rappel and a significant (by Death Valley standards) natural bridge with some small tunnels above it. It eventually joins up with the last rappel (or walk around) of Humperdink.

Approach

Take the Humperdink approach and continue one more drainage past it.

Note: Other area canyon beta describe the special circumstances of this road involving deep sand.
