so.. went into this canyon yesterday not expecting much (dont even know the name of the canyon)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BXYIAiedSRY&feature=youtu.be.. my dad told me that when he was younger he went up into this canyon and there was a couple of falls that were no more than 60 feet.. there were 8 falls ranging from 10ft to 150 ft.. someone had bolted the 150ft falls about 30 years ago and i pulled them out with a slight tug..

Hmmmm. Says this video is blocked "in my country" on copyright grounds. I knew it.... Southern California IS a foreign country.

:cry1::cry1::cry1: I feel so bad for these boys. Not enough gas money to get to Southern Utah so they are forced to make do with what they have. I mean look at that pool of water at the bottom of the last rap for crying out loud. Well, at least it's in a canyon. Good effort guys.:2thumbs:

Well that is a good reason. Desperation Canyon is a better name. (joking around) :lol8:

I also respect your commitment to get out and practice your skills. Post another trip report when you return from Utah.
