Introduction[edit]
Egypt 3 itself can be done without ropes, but is often combined with Egypt 2, making the "down 2 up 3" trip a technical loop between the two canyons.
Approach[edit]
Descent[edit]
Exit[edit]
If you parked at Egypt 2 (as the road is much rougher after 2), you can exit the canyon and head directly north but staying east of Egypt 2. There is a climb up to exit around 37.5807, -111.2397. It is on the west side of the drainage. It also looked like a climb on the east side was possible. Also, you can hike up Egypt 2 a bit and use the Egypt 2 exit.
