    Interesting. I called them a few days ago and they said it was flowing over 15 CFS right now. (not up to)

    Great TR! Twisted ropes, death down climbing; all the sketchy dangerous stuff. Kudos in safe passage.

    Thanks for sharing.

    [Trip Report] Return to the Cauldron

    Even in my 5mm wet suit, the cauldron sapped the warmth out of me as I tried to catch my breath while shivering. I paused.

    Fantastic report, and great pics! One of my first canyons, and haven't been there since. Your report has motivated me to pack up the car and get in there again. Glad your prayer worked out. ;-)

    I'll throw in my experience.

    I've nicked and worn multiple brands of rope that had to eventually be retired. Some due to improper edge protection, others just to wear.
