Introduction[edit]
This is not a canyoneering "route" but is a popular picnic area that has places for rappelling activities and practice. It is also a place where rock climbing routes exist. Historically, Red Ledges has been a popular location for scouting troops and other groups to setup and teach/practice rappelling prior to undertaking larger adventures. There are several locations to rappel from some better/safer than others.
Approach[edit]
Multiple short pathways to various locations in which anchors exist or can be set up. Not every approach is easy, some are tricky and a bit exposed. Choose appropriately.
Descent[edit]
Multiple options most are no more than 99 feet but this is a very generalize number. Be sure to verify the height of any rappel you set up.
