Introduction[edit]
This is a different downstream drainage than Condor Mayu. There is an upper part and a lower part. Upper part is 3h, both parts are 8-10hrs.
The following description was translated from UnoDeAventuras.com by Google Translate:
The Toro-Sucusuma Toro Canyon is the most interesting descent in the area. Dark in a Gorga of great beauty (attention to flow). Then an area between huge walls more than 200 meters high; an emergence and a tourist area of the cannon called "El Vergel"; After that some badinas with jumps and some rappel. One of them narrow and of great beauty that leaves us in the union with the Condor Mayu Canyon; A large tributary to the left. From here 3; 5 km (about 4 hours) with numerous block chaos; Highlights and Badinas. Full day activity that requires planning not to finish at night. You can read a very detailed description of the cannon in the blog of Víctor Sanchez.
