WaterflowIntroduction
With good stemming skills, it is possible to stay dry above the knees in normal conditions. There are about a dozen potholes with water. Some are easy climb-arounds. Some require more daring moves to avoid the water. Avoiding getting wet is the funnest thing about this canyon. There is little other reason to do it.
Approach
Descent
The first rappel is 20 feet off a chockstone. For the second rappel, the Juniper tree on the right rim has been used as the anchor for a retrievable anchor for a 2-tier, 80-foot rappel. There is also a deadman anchor in the drainage above the drop off. It can be down climbed to the watercourse where the deadman is. Have your best climber meat anchor a hand line for everyone to reach the drainage, then LAMAR can be partner assisted to make the last move, or can set up a retrievable hand-line. From the deadman anchor it is a 40 foot rappel to the pool below. Following the edge of the pool canyon right it may be possible to stay dry above the ankles with good balance.
Exit
10 minutes to the car.
