Nice pics, thanks for sharing.

Shane and I have been slowly working toward identifying the forks of these canyons by compass directions, rather than the ambiguous Left and Right. With the Middle Fork of Lep being called the "Middle Fork of Leprechaun".

So, looks like you did the East Fork of Lep and the East Fork of Blarney. Good on ya. I especially like not-sliding down into the unknown, but using the rope in East Lep. A smart decision.

Great photos. Glad you got the chance to complete the east forks! It was nice meeting you in person (I was the guy on the way out the previous day.)

It was nice meeting you and hearing in person the conditions of the west fork. It sounds like you had an adventurous week.
