Looking Up!
A short approach, short exit, and amazing slot section, what more could a canyoneer ask for? This short outing is technically very straightforward and suited for all canyoneers. It provides a good introduction before the more challenging West Fork of Big Spring, just down the road. The short and casual nature make this a good choice for an evening route after doing something else during the day.
As of 2022, the canyon now contains a keeper pothole. Be prepared for keeper pothole escape!
