Beta Request: The Squeeze/The Swell in General

[moabfool]

Anybody done The Squeeze in the last couple weeks? I have a buddy that's bugging me to do The Squeeze over the long weekend, but I'd like some fresh beta before I get in (literaly) over my head. Since it's a Swell trip, does anybody know what conditions are in general down there?

A bunch of folks did it at Tom's Fest this past Friday. They hang out on the Yahoo canyons site. They should know. Quandary Direct was empty but not dry. Some but little water. I think this past week plus of hot weather has reduced the pot holes so recent beta would be good.

Thanks much. I'll pop over there and ask.

I did it last Wednesday. There was a modest amount of water. We had about 4 or 5 short swims, and as many wades about waist-chest deep. We had wetsuits and were glad we did, even though it was warm out. Be prepared to pack toss to get out of a deep pothole. Two of the keeper potholes that sometimes have slings draped across the side to Tyrolean past, don't have slings there at present. We did a pack toss to get out of the second one. The first one can be stemmed over.
