Introduction[edit]
Looper Creek is one of the most scenic gorges in the entire Pacific Northwest. It has one short rappel, several teetering logjams, numerous swims and downclimbs, and a keeper pothole requiring a partner assist to exit.
Approach[edit]
The approach, descent and exit are described in the Beta Sites listed below. The attached map was derived from interpreting their beta.
Descent[edit]
Note: I did this trip on the 9th of August 2017. There was no need to rappel. We brought harnesses and rope and never used them.
Exit[edit]
