Introduction[edit]
This new canyon had an unexpected surprise for us. A swimming pothole to go through. And could not be bypassed around without a super-human effort - very unique & unusual for a Death Valley canyon. Could dry up in late season, or a dry spell.
Also, this was a two Rattlesnake Canyon.
