Quandary Canyon - San Rafael Swell
Date: 04/28/2024
Fantastic canyon, but VERY long exit with multiple crossings of Muddy Creek (which had flashed the day before). Approach is easy. First few raps were dry. Keepers in fun mode. There were lips on most that made escape managable. Lots of pack and sandbag tosses. A bit chilly at times in a 3/2 wetsuit + dive skin, but not too bad. Lots of sliding, partner assists, and teamwork.

Easy warm up canyon. Stemming over semi-keeper was a bit of a mind trip in one section since I hadn't done it in a while. Pretty and fun canyon.

Canyon levels much lower. Canyon was much tighter and harder than last time, requiring more stemming.

Second time doing this canyon and it's still my favorite and still terrifying on that last climb at the end.

What an amazing canyon!!! It was absolutely tough and exciting! keeper was filled with sand but there was high stemming, tight stemming abo e a dark crack, squeezing, downclimbs, spiders, sketchy traverses, and everything you could ever want in a canyon. even moments where you question your own sanity but in the end we came out exhilarated. this is in my top favorite canyons, but it is definitely one of the toughest I've done.
