Tick List

1 trip Little Bull Canyon - White Roost
Date: 10/02/2017
Very Narrow! I pretty much got stuck at second chokestone, but it helped me feel secure as I reached down to tie into the slings. Lost PSA but Minna went back and got it. Short approach and exit.
1 trip U-Turn Canyon - Arches National Park
Date: 10/01/2017
Should have done this one before little bull. Pretty steep approach but nice and open repels, with one fully hanging. Very beginner friendly! Did a simul repel with Minna lol.
3 trip Ding and Dang Canyons - San Rafael Swell
Date: 01/06/2017
Wish we'd had rope for 10ft drop but we lowered each other down and spotted and made it through all the obstacles together!
1 trip Pine Creek - Zion Main Canyon
Date: 01/01/2017
Were sandwiched in between two annoying groups and the climb out was long and very cold in the shade even in heavy wet suit bring a change of clothes next time. and needed permit. But pretty and glad we did it! The one group had a neat rope bag where they only used as much length as needed and tied off the rest and it was a skinny rope awesome set up
1 trip Stegosaur Slot - Capitol Reef
Date: 01/01/2017
Kept trying to turn into canyons too soon keep going until you see the big amazing trees! Took awhile to find first anchor jay only beat me to it because I was helping sam lol. Don't forget the knots at the end of the ropes. Couldn't find second repel shimmied down a dead tree. Then into narrow awesome walls stemmed high above with pack dangling between legs.
