Thought everyone might enjoy some eye candy from this years Rassemblement Internationale de Canyon (RIC) right here at home in Ouray, Colorado!

Waterflows were low/moderate this year. We all dodged a little weather, specifically Wednesday where several groups were forced to wait out conditions at higher ground. All in all it was a fantastic event!

The upcoming RICs sound TANTALIZING!!! 2016: Azores (Spain), 2017: Reunion Island (Madagascar), 2018: Ticino (Switzerland).

Canyons Featured in photos: Cascade Creek (http://ropewiki.com/Cascade_Creek), Upper Uncompahgre River (http://ropewiki.com/Uncompahgre_River_(Upper)), Oak Creek (http://ropewiki.com/index.php/Oak_Creek_(Ouray)), Corbett Creek (http://ropewiki.com/index.php/Corbett_Creek), & last but certainly not least Bear Creek (http://ropewiki.com/Bear_Creek_Canyon)

P.S. Rumor has it that there was a 14min, 20 second (car-to-car) descent of Portland Creek. ;)

I hate the word epic, but those are some epic pics!

Looks like an awesome time. The color of the water looks very inviting...

Thanks for sharing!
