After seeing the amazing pics of Oldno7's amazing new canyons. I searched far and wide for beta on this amazing canyon. Finally I found a couple people willing to break their SDT policy after many beers and possible fellatio. Turns out this amazing secretive canyon is called Enip Keerc which means "canyon of the gods" in Klingon. I quickly grabbed 8 or so of my helmetless friends, my bolt kit, and we headed off with my ATV to find this amazing canyon. All the raps were pretty basic, we didn't see anyone before us, so I'm proud to announce we were the 2nd group through this canyon. There was a group behind us, who were pretty cool, but who cares about 3rd place?

At one point in the canyon we did detect a very nasty smell and assumed someone in Oldno7's group had lost a ZAC neoprene booty. We were hoping to retrieve it for them and keep the canyon in pristine condition. However it was just a dead deer under a log covered with maggots, nothing could be done for it. Ahh well! If anyone has tips on how to remove the stench our rented wetsuit left in my car, I would be eternally grateful, holy crap!
:idea:

Without further adieu, some pics and a video...

And here is a special place in canyon called the High Council Chamber. this is one of the more scenic places in the canyon and makes a great swing unless you want to get super wet.

That water should have been somewhat "warmer" from when we went through, cold water makes me pee:haha:

Thanks guys! Sorry about passing on information and spoiling this perfect canyon. Also be sure to keep your laces tight! I keep making this critical error on most raps, as you see 30 seconds into the video. :crazy:


Cotton helmet...yeah!

Nice pics!

He's got really long hair. The "quick drying" cotton helps keep his biner clear.

Oh BTW, is that the same youngster that was on your Birch Hollow trip earlier this year? Regardless, I like the side X side (not sure offical term) rappel. :2thumbs:

No that was Deep's kid who we are planning a trip with later this year hopefully. But I did post an Orderville TR with both kids in it, so that's probably where you saw her before. But yeah I agree the side by side is awesome. There is also a 4' tether between both of them to as a backup, just in case. So she is allowed to rap but technically still attached to her dad. :2thumbs:

We're sticking it to the man. Fight the power! :2thumbs:


Edit: Due to a huge volume of personal requests from mainly my fan club. I have decided to edit the original post and put a new previously unseen video to the public. Thank you to my wonderful fans and please continue to be amazed at my wonderful videos. I really appreciate each and every one of you and will continue to document these amazing undiscovered canyons. This 2nd video is on the High Council Chambers, we are continually reminded of the amazing Klingon homeworld as we traverse this amazing landscape.

If I am not mistaken, the nauseating stench of the rental wetsuit is part of the rental wetsuit experience.:lol8:

LOL, I guess so. Worst part is when it's been sitting in the sun for a bit. My friends think I have a dead deer in the trunk. :lol8:
