Did this with Kaden. Used bolts on the first two small drops then fiddled a tree down to the second to last bench. Due to snow/ice, we fiddled a rock immediately below the previous drop, but stuck the rope. I had to climb up the slab with ice (scary) to retrieve the rope then traverse over the the normal slab rappel. There are more short rappels if using a shorter rope. The last rappel was only about 60 ft from the smaller boulder on the left of the large boulder above the final corner drop. Even with mishaps and snow, we did it in 2.5 hours. |

Took the Kerrybrook younger YM through this canyon. Ryan Jones and Gary Hansen were the adult supervisors. Ryan told me that the final rappel was "life changing" for him. |

Great evening canyon. Stay to the right after the last rap or you will loose elevation before having to climb back up. |

Annual Krummenacher Moab River raft event. Some of who came along: Trent, Eva, Alysen, Jordan, Adam Smith, Kyle Thomas, Launa Thomas, Brett, Cosmo, Bryce, Malia Hall. Brett and Malia wore sandals on this hike. I didn't wear socks and got blisters on my heels. |

Pete, Dave, Michelle, Julie, Marty, J & F. Fun and easy! Set last rap, then waited for full moon at the fudge-cicle but it was taking too long so we bailed and looked at the moon from the parking lot, instead. Workers on 191 hit a gas line, so town power was out and traffic bottle-necked. Cleared out by the time we left the park, though. |

Fun, short, casual. Last rap makes it down with 200 foot rope. Make sure one pulls to the right to not have both strands in a groove. |

Met some nice people in the parking lot who hadn't run this canyon before so we waited at the top for them and helped! |

Should have done this one before little bull. Pretty steep approach but nice and open repels, with one fully hanging. Very beginner friendly! Did a simul repel with Minna lol. |

Easy and short trip with beautiful views and a very exciting final rappel. I did a few of the short raps with a hand line and a Prusik hitch backup. |
