Comment on Cluster Canyon (aka Entrajo) - Moab
2 of us took about 15 hours on 6/18, starting at 5pm Easy to find the scramble gullies to climb out without having to backtrack One pool was about chest deep, we did not need wetsuits it was in the high 80s There was a webbing hand line down into this pool, and you can land on a “beach” before going into the water Did not get wet at any other points
Comment on Knotted Rope Canyon - San Rafael Swell
Thanks for the feedback I added the top of the ravine and cleaned up the map a bit It seems I had a fair bit of GPS variability/errant points on my last trip in looking at the track I would not want to traverse the area and try to find the top of the ravine via headlamp on a new moon even with the point! You should have been within a very short distance of the ravine, maybe 75' if I did the math right from the nearest track point That can definitely be tough to find by headlamp though
Comment on Leprechaun Canyon - North Wash
Below AltitudeConditions: Dry, Dusty, Clear SkiesConcurred the Middle Fork of Leprechaun on 10/17/23 We had a group of three, but decided to leave one person behind on this canyon because of his size The middle Fork was a challenge, Especially with a Slot bag containing a Rope/Gear/Food/Water Although a blast this canyon tested us every step of the way! First, starting off with a couple steep narrow handlines or rappels Which ever you prefer, both rappels have anchor points However, after watching the couple go i...
Comment on Water Canyon - Hildale
Did it with a group of 4 experienced canyoneerers 10/31/2023 Took us 65 hrs with three ropes and leapfrogging the rappels Excellent canyon All raps in great condition A pretty amazing canyon in my opinion Great views throughout, route finding is easy, and the raps all straightforward We did it without wetsuits and tried to avoid water where possible Most of the raps that required a rappel into water had a alternative rap station set up that allowed you to avoid the water except rap 4 Two points of note are that the...
Comment on Rock Canyon - Zion South Side
Ran Rock Canyon on 10/30 with a group of 4 Drive took 2 hours from virgin to the trailhead pretty much as described by RTR Drove the sand road with an F350 Took the road according to all GPS coordinates as posted on RTR One part of the road was extremely tight for an F350 We made it, but I would not recommend doing it if driving a large F350 size truck the road seemed like it was built more for razors than trucks We took an alternate route back and it was much much better and truck friendly We did not get stuck in ...
Comment on Dragonfly Canyon - Arches National Park
#conditions BRING BUG SPRAY! Did the canyon on 06/29/24 Group of 8, with some beginners, took us 3 and 1/2 hours Both of the anchor points and the webbing were good I would highly recommend doing the canyon when the potholes are full of water We did some cliff jumping into the first pothole After the last rappel we ended up getting eaten alive by the mosquitoes I’m not even sure bug spray would have helped with the amount of them I have about 15 bites on each arm now I would recommend hiking out of the canyon floor...
Comment on Lisa Falls - Wasatch Front
#conditions Did the lower falls yesterday Flow seems a little high, and the face of the rock is really mossy and slick! There are three sets of anchors at the top of the last rap Two on the left, and one on the right looking up canyon There is no longer webbing on the right side, and you'll need to bring webbing to hook up to it The two on the left offer an easier line down the waterfall, as you can stay out of the water easier if you wish In our case, it was good due to the high flow and slippery rock surface The ...
Comment on Not Tierdrop Canyon - Arches National Park
Big Thank you to UWbroncos55 for his comment about all the rappels being anchored now Probably would not have done this one otherwise I added photos of the lower anchor points This route was turned into a fantastic one with the new anchors Its a great 2nd round after U Turn
Comment on Pine Creek - Zion Main Canyon
We did this yesterday, April 3rd It was a cool day and cold water with a cool breeze that made for some discomfort at the last rap We, the parents and 3 boys 18,15,10, did the the canyon in 5 hours #conditions lots of swimming in the long corridors We were able to swim away from the wall in the cathedral to get to a point where it was waist deep so we could disconnect We found 3 solid anchor points for the last rappel We did option 2 since it was the first one found and it was a little exposed but felt like we ...
Comment on Upper Telephone Canyon - Zion Main Canyon
10/26 - funny that this canyon gets so much hate Just because of the approach hike Enjoying the approach is probably a prereq, but it's a pleasant hike The highlight is a few raps in, excellent downclimb down a v slot if you have the technique, it's better than being sucked into the crack by the rope followed by a cool airy rappel, enjoy the view Bonus points if you can downclimb the slab at the bottom, but be careful or you might go for a ride Big R1 is cool too Some of the drops towards the end are easy dow...
