Waterflow
Introduction
A canyon best avoided in flow, especially in the watercourse of the 2nd rappel. It may be one of the hardest and most dangerous rappels you will encounter... a knife edge overhang 2 inches thick... details will be posted on Canyoningthe406.com by the end of December 2024. Then added here.
Approach
Descent
Don't rappel the main watercourse of the second rappel. If you do, don't get your foot entrapped. If you do, don't core shot your rope. If you do, don't die.
