#conditions 6/23/2025 Ran this with a group of 9 people and had fun. A little smoke but not bad due to the wildfires. All anchors and webbing looked good, fun trip, low water flow. Some of the rock is slick, be careful. The last rappel has multiple anchors you can use, I think I counted 3-4 sets of bolts (some use it as a climbing route). |

Took the family to go do Benson Creek, used rain jackets and quick dry pants, weather was good, all anchors were good. 1st rappel is off of a dead tree, wonder how long that will be good for. |

rumbling thunder on approach had us a bit nervous but figured short narrows. very pretty. had lunch below at picnic tables where it did rain and was quite unpleasant by the time we were ready to walk out |

Wonderful. 4 raps in water flow. Avoid algae at bottom of R4 RDC. 800’ of gain using standard approach. |

Went to Benson Creek after we got rained out at Zion for Tammy's Heaps trip. We did Benson on the way home. Tammy Tucker and Ryan Thatcher were along for the journey. Hike is pretty steep, at the top we found a GeoCache. Water flow in canyon was perfect. |

Shawn, Lance, and I - 3.5 hours. would be much shorter but took a while deciding where to scramble up at couple steep places in the approach. It was good that we started early (8:30) so we were in the shade during the approach. |
