Comment on The Chute of Muddy Creek - Southern Swell
can this be done in a small 8ft raft Wondering if any pinch points would cause us trouble
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 Lisa Falls - Wasatch Front
Did this with a friend last week The water was still great and not too high If you follow the dirt trail to the left of the falls up about 20 yards, there will be a spot where you can cross over to the rock At that point, you're probably climbing some grade 4 areas up to the rappel spot One word of warning There are a lot of anchor points which make it an awesome place to take younger beginners If you're looking for the MAIN rappel point, look for a spot on the right of the falls looking up canyon that has so...
Comment on The Golden Cathedral - Escalante
4/1 I did this with a friend, we went down the fence canyon side and back up the cross country The map route on here only shows one river crossing really, when going to Neon The recent waters have widened the river and is running pretty quick with an average depth of at our knee's There ended up being like 5 or 6 crossings i recommend bringing water shoes Cross country is the ticket route though it seemed easy to navigate, one river crossing and the ups and downs are more gradual in between the two elevation drops ...
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 Hidden Canyon - Zion Main Canyon
Sadly, it looks like this trail was closed due to rockfall in 2019 and hasn't yet reopened If anyone finds it open, please comment! I'd love to visit someday!
Comment on South Cainville Mesa - Cainville
Thanks for the correction, yes, west of the deep gully I didn't look much at the register If memory serves, it was not visited frequently We saw no signs of traffic on our visit It actually took me 2 tries to find the correct route Oddly, the second time we tried it, it seemed very obvious! I know N Cainville is seeing a lot of traffic in the last few years, so suspect S might being seeing an increase as well Really neat hike in my opinion
Comment on Grassy Trail Rock Art - Price
Visited 2/12/24 The boulder in the road described at mile 475 is no longer an issue; it has either moved or been moved Up to mile 39 is easily Subarubable; after that better for high-clearnace/4WD Crossing Grassy Creek was really the only sketchy spotThis would be a great spot to visit late on a Fall day when the cottonwoods are turning After checking out the petroglyphs and ruins it would make for a wonderful campsite, falling asleep to the sound of the river
