With Jeff. Hike was beautiful. Canyon open and beautiful. Nikki would want a wetsuit.
First time swimming in a canyon pool, great beautiful canyon. TERRIBLE hike to get to the top though. had to take our time. fun raps with a variety of starts.
Full canyon with team of 5. 2-3 swims plus one spot waist deep water. We were the first group in, heard a group behind us but they didn't catch up. The berries are coming in but not ready for picking yet - pretty tart.
#conditions 6/24/25 Ran this with a group of 9 without wetsuits. Got wet, had fun, a bunch of wading and a little bit of swimming. Took the longer route and did all the rappels--totally worth it. Careful of the one tight spot, the walls are smooth and hard to go up higher unless you start higher. It can be tight for heavier people. Thoroughly enjoyed the canyon and was perfect for a hot day in summer. All anchors and webbing were in good condition and most rappels seemed to have multiple anchor options. I believe there might be an additional optional rappel off of a tree which is shorter than the description of the first rappel in the RTR beta. Some in our group did it some hiked around.
6 of us including me, Justin and Gavin, plus Ryan and Logan Madsen and Logan's friend Carter. Low water with only one swim on the second rap. Even the last big rappel which normally holds a lot of water that you need to swim was ankle deep. Time was 6 hrs 7 min round trip.
Networking with Allies. Fun group, only did 2/3s of the canyon or half....Anyway, that took a long time but was super fun. Total time 5 hrs 19 min. Did this again on 8/16/2025 and did the full canyon, watch died but took about 6 hours 53 min.

Middle route with a 120 and 60 ft tag line. Needed it on the first rappel. Manged to stay dry except for quicksand.

First time leading a group through canyon!
Did on first trip (day 3) to the area. Guided by Kurtis.
First guided canyon trip. Lots of fun. Free hanging rappel. Ray, Laura, Ethan, Brooke, Ellen, Olivia, Eden.
First time through, it took us 8.5 hours car to car. great weather, no wetsuits needed, and only a couple of standing pools. all avoidable. pool below R2 is a medium tricky stem.
Hot. Wore long sleeve white shirt. Mark, Linda, Tricia
Beautiful canyon. This may be a beginner technical Canyon from the midpoint optional drop in, but the upper section is no joke. Amazing rap down 170ft wall. Some swimmers. Stemming narrows. Keeper pothole avoidance. The upper section is a must.
Perfect weather. Mark, Linda, Nate and daughter...
Headed out with Rai, BB, JJ, Jaki, and Anthony (Keyo!)
