Four of us will be tackling Quandary this weekend (thanks for the responses to my invite!).

Question: Should we take wetsuits? Has anyone been through recently enough to tell us how full and how cold the potholes are?

We can pack our wetsuits just in case, but if anyone could confidently tell me we won't need to use them, I would gladly leave the wetsuits in the car!

Have you checked the weather lately? There is a strong wind advisory that you may want to consider for any trip into the desert this weekend. Temps are expected to be as much as 20 degrees cooler than they have been.
Additionally, Quandary is a 'sunny' canyon. There are not many cold shady places there.
If it were me (AND THERE WASN'T A STORM COMING THROUGH) I would leave my wetsuit at home and wear cotton.
YMMV

Did Direct last week. Water is low and not that cold.
