Shortcut route following GPX. Found the rappel from the top juniper, descended to ledge and took the second rappel stationed from another tree. Downclimbed some more and set up a third rappel from a tree. To the right are some cairns that lead you to some good downclimbing. After that you have about 300 feet to figure out. Doable, a bit sketch. The canyon had a good bit of water. No real challenge to the pot holes. All could be accomplished without gear or even an assist. Water was muddy and a little cool. We had farmer john wetsuits and were pretty comfortable, although a little chilled at about the 5th canyon rappel. We had a 100 ft rope (and a pull line we did not use) and did simple double-strand raps the whole way.

Warm day. We wore hiking pants and short sleeve shirts and were very comfortable. Pretty dry in the canyon: First rap had water to just the shins for the first person. Second person easily redirected to land on the dry ground. Then an avoidable puddle and finally a long skinny area that I just walked through because I was hot anyway, but then it got chest deep LOL. Second person walked on the right where there is a ledge under the water and bridged his body to the wall, and therefore only got water to knees. Pot holes were done with partner assist and a ladder only. We never threw a pot shot or bag, although we had them with us. Tallest was about 12-14 feet, I'd say. No water in any of the pot holes. Very fun canyon!
