Hi!
Two friends and I completed the North fork or Iron wash, in the swell, on sunday. Incredible. :nod:
There was perfect, clear running water filling all the potholes throughout this great canyon. The ambiance was unbeatable. Wet-suits would have been nice, as we were all very cold by the end of the dark/technical section. Swimming, waist-deep wading, and very cold water in the dark (very dark) section were encountered. It took us 8-9 hours in total using the fault-line canyon as the entry point.
If you are considering a moderate canyon in the swell with a long approach check this out if there have been recent rains. Iron wash is a large drainage, allowing for flowing crystal clear water. Enchanting. Camera ate it on the zipline, so I only have a few pictures.
Happy steming! :mrgreen:
