We were able to make a quick trip down to Blarney and only got in one canyon between rain storms. We got to the camp sight Friday evening and set up camp before the storm hit. It did rain most of the night and only let up in the morning just long enough to break camp.

The sun came out and the sky turned blue around noon so we decided to do the left fork of Blarney. The canyon took us 3hrs stopping for lots of pictures. Just as we were finishing the canyon the rain was back and it didn't take long for the slick rock to be running water off the walls. That was an awsome sight but a scary one too.

The webbing was in good shape and the deepest pool was about 3'.

Here are a few pictures

Everything in the area flashed on Wednesday night. More rain on Friday? We left Friday morning. I thought the storms were clearing out.

I guess you didn't walk up to the tent site by the cliffs at Sandthrax and pick up my sack of laundry so I could pay you a reward to ship it back to me? :cry1:

No sorry I didn't walk up there. If I had I would have let you know.
