Introduction[edit]
A short canyon in Big Tujunga with a nice 105' granite rappel. The first exploration of this canyon was done dropping in much higher than this rappel around 34.29782, -118.29144. However there isn't a whole lot of interest above this and these dry falls are the redeeming feature of this canyon. Dropping in directly above this around_____ is probably more desirable.
- As with all the Big T canyons your help is needed to keep access open. This entire area is still seeing a slow recovery from the old station fire which means lots of invasive plants and overgrowth in general can quickly close off access to these areas and/or make your time in them miserable. Consider adding a pair of hand shears and/or small bypass loppers to your gear list when descending these places.
