Warning! This fork of Water Canyon is VERY NARROW. Larger canyoneers may not fit. At 6'2" and 185lbs, I fit with a little room to spare, but people that are much bigger may struggle.
Water Canyon offers the intrepid canyoneer a good day out. The crux of the canyon is a very tight narrow section right as you get going. Beside the crux, the canyon offers great views, and a very nice deep, dark slot section. Water Canyon is a good one, beginner friendly with competent leadership and makes a nice casual day out.
