Introduction
A previously established and unpublished mini canyon in Oak Creek Canyon. A great addition to the mini canyon circuit. Boulder hopping, downclimbs, and short rappels will land you close to the creek.
Approach
Harding Springs Trail to the drop in.
Descent
4-5 rappels under 50'.
Exit
Use extra caution if you walk the road back to parking at cave springs. Crossing the road and following the creek or trails on the other side is a nice ending to a short adventure.
