East Leprechaun Canyon

Last Saturday (the 11th), I took my parents and younger brother down East Leprechaun Canyon. We had temperatures in the high 50s and sun the whole time. My dad and brother have done some canyons in the roost with me, but this was my mom's first time, and she loved it. We took our time in the slot, setting up 3 rappels and stopping occasionally to rest and enjoy the scenery. All anchors were in good shape, and the only water we ran into was a pothole about 5 minutes up-canyon from the mandatory rappel. We spent a total of about 4 hours in the slot itself. It was a good change up after doing only roost canyons last year.

You know that's right! My canyoneering clothes always turn into hobo clothes after like two trips! Great report! Looks like fun!

Thank you for the comments everybody! I'm glad you enjoyed the pictures. Hey Duane, this was the first time I've been able to get out since last October, but it sure felt great!

Looks like fun! Note: the ('biner block) 'biner in pic 3 (from top) appears to be unlocked.
