It had just flooded. 3 swimmers, everything wet. All anchors and webbing caked in mud and difficult to evaluate. We replaced 2 anchors and backed up the rest. Many were buried under mud and water. Fun canyon! Difficult escape walking through canyons instead of untop. Undefined trail. Lots of partner assist short drops (not rappel). |

Had thigh deep water in some of the potholes and rappel pools. The last rappel weirded me out. There is a 50' rappel and then a 100' rappel. I would say this is only doable as a two stager. The 50' rappel was bolted, however the most solid bolt was missing a hanger and the other bolt was pretty loose. There wasn't anything to build a backup anchor with and the pothole you are in was so shallow it wouldn't have made much difference anyways. We backed up the first down with a meat anchor but then I got to rappel on the single loose bolt. The 100' rappel was fine....good deadman with backups. If you are worried about the exit climb out, don't be......somebody literally built stone switchbacks where the man made steps were! It rained and flooded the Roost later that night so the anchors and conditions we experienced have probably changed for the worse. Overall the canyon was really pretty. There was some climbing which pretty easily defeated. It is pretty long with the exit hike which is kind of tricky to find. There were really neat iron or calcite mineralizations in the canyon. Really cool deep slot sections with interesting sinuous shaped ceilings. Took 6.5 hrs car to car. |

Canyon was great, but we rushed through it. Horrible exit due to heat and crappy map reading by rest of the group. i got left behind and helped them route find once they got cliffed out. Only 2 of us had maps and we took long way out. |
