As of 11/10/18 all of the anchors were in good condition and the canyon very dry The approach has some cairns in place, but you need to make a judgement call when cutting right to approach the drop in Would not recommend doing this canyon in the summer due to the steep and exposed approach Pretty much all the anchors are natural so it would be a good idea to bring extra webbing and links Be cautious on some of the rappels as the footing is extremely slick We made good time 45 hrs using three ropes 200ft, 140ft, 100...
Went through 7/2/1019 Absolutely beautiful canyon but brutal exit Our intention was to take the direct route to Neon Canyon and go down the sport entry We ended up on the Fence Canyon trail and easily reached Neon Canyon Only point of confusion was having to cross the river several times before reaching Neon Canyon We couldn't find the sport entry and ended up dropping down the "More Fun Entry" rappelling off the hoodoo The first downclimb had a dead squirrel All potholes were full and easily escapable Ther...
Just did this canyon We rigged an anchor off a bush on the north rim It was 50 meters to the bottom If you bring 100 meters of rope, that is enough to pull your rope for this rappelOther observations: The approach is 45 minutes from the canyon floor To go back and pick up your rope would take at least an hour and a half I would rather carry extra rope and haul it through this canyon than go back and pick it upThere is a significant debris obstruction, 20 feet high, near the end of the canyon Climbing overwould be d...
Completed 5/8/21, in just over 2 hours: There wasn't much water, and what water was there could be avoided if wanted Most of our group of six chose to do so, but I chose to jump in some of the potholes None that I jumped in were keepers, but at least one was about chest-deep No wetsuits It was only in the mid- to high-70s, but the water was still bearable I can second what was said below: if you come to a rap spot where it looks like there is no anchor, it's there, you just have to search around a bit Look up and h...
09/03/2023 Group of 3 slow moving, methodical, experienced canyoneers Experienced yes; more to learn always! We’re a democratic trio ie: no ONE leader who calls all the shots and we never make beta time! This was our first time in CableBelow the first pothole sequence, canyon full of bacon grease consistency and viscosity mud! This will slow you down, and certainly make you think twice about your downclimbs Affects ability to get out of the potholes, as well! This will not let up completely until you're near the...
Thanks @tomg for their description It helped us plan our trip And as always thank you to @ryancornia! Dates: 4/26/25-4/27/25Group: 4 Adults, 1 Dog#conditions: Sunny, Mid 60s to Mid 70s, lows in the 40s overnight Small seeps & low flow of water where you enter the canyon see picture of where we camped Minimal bugs We did this as a short 1 night trip Drive from i70 to the trailhead was ~60 minutes Easy enough road for most of it, bumpier at the end but nothing bad Car camped at the trailhead Friday Saturday we walke...
Ran Jolley Gulch on 07/25/25 When Ryan said it was a short canyon, I wasn't expecting it to be that short Anyways, if you are looking for a good quarter day canyon or just want to take your time and mosey through a canyon, it isn't too bad I can also confirm that the rangers ask to use a retrievable anchor on the first rap The reason I comment however is because while in the canyon, a group of hikers threw numerous rocks down into the canyon We were gratefully further down canyon so we didn't get smoked by the rock...
Tom Jones named Ho Hum Canyon after our descent of the canyon in December 2004 The name is harsher than it probably deserves, and I found the canyon had more charm than Tom did Compared to the nearby canyons such as White Roost, Chambers, and North Fork of Robbers Roost, Ho Hum is not as dramatic Ho Hum is short, but does have some downclimb and other challenges that make it interesting It also drops into the upper reaches of the North Fork of Robbers Roost, which I think is a delightful and beautiful section of ca...
This is a canyon that the few people that I knew to have done it had left me with the impression that it would be a dud; not worth the time or energy So, when I visited, I had fairly low expectations As often happens in life I suppose, having low expectations led me to be very pleasantly surprised! Seager's Window Canyon, though not nearly as narrow as its neighbor Seager's Hole/The Squeeze, has larger and much more ominous keeper potholes The difficult potholes are passable with interesting climbing around the sid...
Short narrows, a pictograph panel, big views, arches, and even an optional rappel or two, what more could a canyon offer Farnsworth is a charmer, and a canyon I have visited many times over the years Visiting the lower section of the canyon, through the narrows or up to the pictograph panel, offers an easy to access outing suitable for most and a good kid friendly hike For those with a bit more energy, a jaunt up to the top of the reef offers big views and three hidden arches/bridges Still not satisfied Have some t...
