Yeah, we talked about what we'd do if the bear was still alive. We pretty much drew a blank and decided we were thankful that it was dead. It might have been possible to get around the pothole...

That exit is definitely a bear when there's snow on it. We had a heck of a time on there a few years ago with just a few patches of snow in the key areas. Great trip report!

[Trip Report] Christopher Creek (Box) Canyon
Not our first time through this canyon, but still a fantastic time.

Stuck/Left Rope in Sundance Canyon
So we were in Sundance Canyon in the Tonto National Forest (central AZ) yesterday, and our rope got stuck on the last rappel. We're baffled as to how it got stuck, but we weren't able to pull it, and...

Strong work, JJ, as usual! And don't worry, you join excellent company with the whole "hole in the butt of your pants/wetsuit" thing. I've been there a few times. Sweet pictures!

Don't bother with the Forgotten/Eagle Canyon Loop. It was my first canyon, and while I'll always remember it fondly as my first canyon, there's not a lot there.

I used the rope there and didn't find it hard, either. Though if it's wet I'm sure it's easy to slip.
