Thanks to mountaineer I started thinking about what is in store for me for canyons in 2014. My season was cut short last year so I am anxious to get started this year. Here is my short list:


Heaps
Englestead
Water Holes
Insomnia (I see a big air theme starting :naughty:)
Neon
Big Canyon
Oak Creek (middle and lower)

If you are gonna do Neon, I would HIGHLY recommend doing Choprock in the same trip. Choprock is a Top 5 canyon without question.

Look us up when you are ready for any of the Zion canyons if you need any company

The below are on the wish list for this year.

Late Winter:

Hogwarts
Bluejohn
MMI
Undercover

Early Spring:

Un-betaed Canyon Robbers Roost
High Spur
Sevenmile

Late Spring:

Squeeze/Segers Hole
Morose
Fivemile Wash
Hog (not the one in North Wash)
Ringtail
Baker
Davis Gulch

Summer:

Checkerboard
Boundary and out Narrows
Englestead
Ouray stuff (CO)

Fall:

Badger (AZ)
Cove (AZ)

I'd also like to do Imlay again and would like to do Heaps, if I can find the right group. There are some un-betaed canyons I'd like to check out as well.

Un-betaed Canyon Robbers Roost


What's the un-betaed canyon in the roost. I know the roost pretty well so any new stuff holds particular interest to me...

Also, I've never heard of Morose...

For me:

Several unbetaed canyons

I want to do Heaps and Imlay again but with really low water.

Boundary

Checkerboard

Tons of Escalante stuff, including long branch, as well as some of the classics like neon and Choprock

Something on the Inyo crest, Craig canyon maybe.

Cable

Poe

A host of Powell stuff

Something in the Willard spires

Some west desert granite gems

A Teton route that apparently involves "terrifying rappels into outer space" and has only been done once. But that starts to cross over into my alpine climbing plans.

I've found some limestone stuff in Wyoming that I'm anxious to explore as well.

So many slots, so little time.
