Great time with Brock and Allison. totally dry which was nice but it would be rough if full of water

really cool rappels and spot section. probably did 5-6 rappels. first rap has a terrible start.

Went with Allison and had a fun time. Boosted her up the crux and then she helped me. Rappel was fine with a 60m and a partner assist for the downclimb.

With Allison and David. Meat Anchored the climb around on the left and then had to ascend up the 3rd? rappel with the bad grooves to avoid the pool at the arch.

First off, the rappel down the bottom just wasn't fun. I would never do it that way again. If another friend really wanted to try it I would definitely go looking for the anchor described in another comment b/c it looks like it might be really nice to do the rappel that way. For the hike out, it certainly wasn't well defined. We're pretty sure the intended way is, about 20' after turning right into the second wash, scramble up the crumbly sand but at the top of that is just a field of untouched crypto. We ended up just using someone else's footprints a bit farther up the canyon until we got to the intended trail but I think the bottom of the intended trail must have washed away at some point.

Great hot time with Allison.

Fast and dry with Brock
