Holy rappel Batman! :eek1:

That looks awesome!!!! These pictures were worth the wait. This has probably been mention someplace, but where is Mindbender? How long is it? What is it rated? Etc? Inquiring minds want to know. :popcorn:

Its in Robber's Roost, which in case you didn't know, is in the absolute middle of nowhere. It takes less than a day and its rated 3A III in normal conditions. A map of the area can be found on canyoneeringusa.com if you look at the "Roost" section of the guide, but having someone show it to you in person or at least on a topo is probably best, since its a confusing jumble of roads and canyons out there.

Knowledge of how to build and assess natural anchors is required-- no bolts!
