Waterflow
Introduction[edit]
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[edit]
Descent[edit]
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.
