Memorial Day Weekend (May 25-27): Can I tag along?

Although it's still a little early yet I want to at least throw some feelers out there for memorial day weekend. I'm looking to tag along with a group trying to escape the crowds on memorial day weekend and doing some canyoneering outside of Zion as it's likely to be a zoo. Anybody headed to Swell or the Roost?


I'm looking for a reasonably experienced group of safety conscious folks looking for some adventure. I'll be flying into Vegas Friday afternoon, picking up some provisions and then I can meet just about anywhere.







A little about me: I'm 28 years old, fit, and fast. I've done several weeks of canyoneering since I fell in love with the sport a year ago February. My canyon portfolio: Behunin, Mystery, Echo, Pine Creek, Spry, Subway X 2 + Das Boot, Keyhole X infinity, Imlay (Sneak), Neon, Ringtail, Egypt 3.


I'm in the 6.5 hr club for SubwayXDas boot (Car to Car) and the 30 minute club in Keyhole Cyn. :)


I'm safety driven, cautious, logical, and thirsty for some more canyoneering! I've got exposure (albeit it minimal) to pothole escape in Ringtail and Imlay. I can bring 200ft rap line, 200ft pull line, 100ft 8.3mm Imlay Gear fire-rope, hooks, potshots, hand-drill for safety, bolts if need-be.

Who knew? there are canyoneering clubs for doing canyons in certain times! LOL

That is a pretty good list of canyons for one year of canyoneering experience! looks like 2012 was a good year for ya!

Oooh. There's this little town on the other side of the state called Moab, there are some great little canyons and we were there a few weeks ago: the area was deserted. It's just hitting the radar though, so get in before everyone hears about this place.:lol8:
