Introduction
Easy access and 2 rappels make this quick and low commitment canyon worthwhile.
Please tread lightly and be mindful of the moss and other vegetation.
Approach
Park off the 89A and walk a short distance from the road to the start of the canyon drainage.
Descent
R1: 80' off bolts left side of edge.
R2: 25' off bolts RDC near edge. Can be avoided LDC to gain social trail to Pumphouse Wash and exit trail.
Exit
We found a social trail back up to the rim and our vehicles, located just up Pumphouse Wash a couple hundred feet on the left.
