Telephone Canyon - June 7th 2014
Took the first shuttle, set off from the Grotto at 06h35, passed Scout Lookout at 07h15 and continued along the West Rim Trail. Looked down into Behunin from the switchbacks on our way towards the top of Telephone. Met a few folks either on their way to (or back from, having decided not to do) Heaps.
Worked our way down the canyon, which was a cool route, though quite slippery/dusty in places. All anchors/webbing/etc in good condition. Ate lunch just before the last rappel and wandered back across the slickrock to the WRT. Ambled back to Zion Canyon, consuming the last drops of our water as we (re-)approached the Grotto.
A nice little canyon, but a bit of a hike in (and out), even going early to avoid most of the heat.
Although after Icebox and Fat Mans last week, it didn't actually seem so bad :cool2:
