    The problem with a top 40 list is that it is a top 40 of the ones you've done. And nobody has done all the canyons. I mean, Ram has come closer than anyone I know of, but there's still hundreds he...

    Figured it was too good to be true. Must have wanted to use a site where no one could post criticism of his ethics next to his beta.

    Doesn't sound to me like that's going to cause you any issues!

    Not sure of the reason, but I hope it's just because special places deserve special treatment so I say kudos.

    I love that you think I can't afford a 20 minute helicopter ride. But my financial situation isn't really the point.

    I'm MUCH more concerned about what access to canyons on Navajo land will look...

    In June? Do you hate your life? :)

    Seriously though, do I have to buy my seat on the helicopter or are you covering it?

    I'm not sure you understand the essence of an exploration. There is far more to the process than not reading the book. The studying of maps, the poking around looking for a reasonable approach, the...

    I rest my case.

    You know what surprises me the most though....that ANYONE wants to canyoneer with you. I presume there is a different persona in real life than online because I can't imagine...

    Absolutely not. While many think the names are kind of dumb and that it is very disrespectful to not use the names the first explorers gave them as per convention in climbing and canyoneering for...

    Yours are being stepped on. And mine. And everyone else who will canyoneer in the years to come who will no longer have the opportunity to do an exploration of these canyons without knowing if or how...

    Thanks for sharing. Lots of lessons learned there.

    Surprised you guys didn't rotate the sleeping bags. I would have much rather taken a 2 hour stint without one than had someone go all night.

    The one consolation about canyoneering in the cold is that water can only get so cold.

    There are lots of great canyons to do in October. Not sure I'd put Heaps on that list. Probably warmer than...

    I've never seen Heaps or Imlay in hard condition. Are the hooks mandatory, or can you throw/assist your way out of those? As I imagine those last 20+ holes in Imlay in lower water conditions, it...

    Agree on all points. I've used sharpie for years on both canyon and climbing ropes. It doesn't damage the rope. In fact, it might not even be there after the trip. I get half a season out of it on a...

    I've descended the entire Lisa Falls couloir ropeless at the end of May early one morning. Crampons were necessary. A rope was not. Very canyoneering esque. Pretty significant approach though. I...

    Absolutely you can canyoneer in Zion at that time of year. I've even done Pine Creek and Keyhole at the end of November, although I'm not sure I really recommend it. Much more fun earlier in the...

    100% agree with you. I've started using a Fiddlestick even on trade routes just to reduce grooving. Pulling 100 feet of canyon rope through the chains does a lot to the soft sandstone found in...

    FYI- This route had a name prior to you assigning it "Tiger Route" which may quite possibly be the worst name I've ever seen for a canyon. I would suggest the original name.

    Did you find a rope in Arches?

    Left a rope behind in the Park Avenue parking lot at Arches National Park. It would be pretty awesome to get it back. If you have it, I'd love to hear from you.
