Introduction

The R rating is for several difficult rope retrievals, logs to negotiate on rappel, and traverse line rigging. Before attempting the full Chiflon route it is advisable to run Half Chiflon to evaluate flow and your team’s ability and pace. Half Chiflon is approximately half the distance and has 1/2 the number of rappels.

Exit

A common swimming hole and tourist attraction. There is a cantina for fresh fish at the exit.
