Chambers was great. We did it that morning and the weather was beautiful. Lots of fun stemming and some pretty tight squeezes. It's been awhile since being down in the north wash, but Chambers seemed...

Thanks guys, It was soooo cold... 63805

We ended up doing chambers and got our tent set up at alcatraz right before the storm hit.

Headed down this weekend to have some fun in the roost this weekend. Were new to the area but not the sport (Were competent and have done nearly everything in Zion including the a couple of the big...

When wetsuits, water and cold hands force you to acknowledge how much weight you gained over the winter...

Taking a group of first timers through Pine Creek. (I love pine creek because it is the perfect introduction to Canyoneering). They all loved it and are constantly reminding me that I...

Well I guess I will have to preach a bit more then... And Tom,those body bags might be a nice option for a forced bivy too!! I just wish Canyoneering USA Store stocked them...

Yep, I exited out the narrows and they dont require a seperate permit for the narrows, or to camp either (as long as you camp before you enter the NF). It was actually pretty easy...

If you look closely I am wearing a helmet (I'm carrying the orange ropebag), but have not ben able to convert my freinds to the helmet cult yet...

P.S. Kolob is stunning... and the hike/float down the narrows was an excellent way to finish the trip off... Here are a few pics

Am I way offbase or is that only 3 cfs??

The camera is yours to keep, I just want the pictures... I lost it somewhere between where we camped (a sandy spot on the left hand side about 5 minutes from the end of the water) to about 15 minutes...

And although tom can be a bit grumbly sometimes, I do appreciate all his helpful advice that I have gleaned from my countless hours trolling on bogley...

So thanks Tom

Well, I did kolob yesterday... its flowing nicely. Although I would be hard pressed to make an accurate judgement of the actuall flow rate, it seemed like a bit more than 3 cfs to me... but perhaps...

If you look closely I do have a helmet... Although I confess I have not been able to convert my freinds yet...

there were 4 of us so we basically threw the smallest guy out

10-12 feet deep, this will give you an idea... the person taking the picture is downstream.

With all our wetsuits on it was a tough climb out, not really anything to hold on too... the...

I almost always use use the figure 8 block with a totem. I've only had to actually use it once or twice, and it worked great. It's easy and fast, and safe as long as you attach to the correct side of...

hmmmm, 2 short swims and perhaps a handful of short wades... but the water was very cold...

We did it 2 weeks ago... The last keeper was full of sand and pretty easy to get out of... although farther up was a pothole quiet a bit more challenging to get out of... maybe 11 or 12 feet, just...

I love my totem, I always use it as a releaseable rigging whenever i have anyone on the line that might have a problem (girls with long hair)....

I love the versititility and use it as my primary...

that fourth class chimmney comment confused us too, we just walked right into it.

and I wouldn't reccomend choprock and backpacking out in the same day if you are planning to camp down there...

Nat,

Some freinds and I did choprock two weeks ago (april 14th). We just took a topo map and blazed our own trail. We hung left right before the first mesa and took the slickrock bench to the...

I took a group through mystery last week without a wetsuit... only got wet when we hit the last quarter mile hike out of the narrows. I was very glad we didnt take ours...
