Pleiades Conditions??

[Cam]

Hi,

I'm contemplateing a Moab trip mid June, any thoughts or reports on the water conditions in Pleiades and Cluster (Entrajo), south of Moab? I'm thinking Pleiades may be in full on class C flow conditions.

Thanks in advance, Carroll

I think you are correct.... we did the route on Memorial Day in 2009 and the canyon had major flow and the canyons still contained large sections of ice.

Entrajo should not be a problem, the canyon will contain water but its a very short canyon and the time you are in the water is short, provided you know what you are doing.

Hey Carroll,
I'm going to Pleiades the weekend of June 11th - I'd love to do a another canyon with you if you would consider doing it wet. I've done it later, and although fun, I would like to do it under flow conditions.
I would probably do it later in the season with you also, though.
We could have fun doing another video. Let me know.
If you haven't seen my Pleiades video, check it out
