Looks like a fun hike! How long did it take you? Does it require a backcountry permit? Looks like you started by checkboard mesa?

Saturday we started at Checkerboard, went down Fat Man's, up Parunuweap and out French Canyon. Its a good route that traverses some of the most scenic country on the planet. Only problem is it takes about 3 hours to set up the car shuttle required.
I'll post some pictures soon as I have some free time to download my camera. I hadn't done Fat Man's for about 4 years and it was nice to do it again.

So does it require a permit? And how long does it take? I didn't notice any rappeling in the pictures, is it required?

There is no permit required for Fat Man's. The technical section is outside the park. There are about 4 rappels, the biggest being about 30'. You will want a 100' rope because some of the anchors are located back from the edge.
Now I have a question.... anyone hiked down Poverty Wash to Parunuweap? Down Fat Mans. Up P-weap and out Poverty Wash might be a good route that would cut down greatly on the car shuttle. Only reason I am looking is the section of P-weap between misery and Poverty is awesome but exiting out French is a nasty shuttle. I figure out Poverty can't be any worse then back up and over checkerboard, am I right?

Next question.... where Poverty Wash meets P-weap there was a flowing creek and no trail. 100 yards down stream from Poverty Wash was a good trail exiting up a smaller side drainage. I'm guessing the trail is the actual route out of Poverty Wash? Also, I thought I heard about a Poverty Wash cattle trail, maybe this is the better trail I saw just downstream? Anyone know?
