Baptist Draw / Upper Chute Canyon

[jstreet]

Has anyone done Baptist Draw lately? I'm wondering if there is any water/mud and how the anchors are.

I was in the swell last weekend. Quandary canyon was almost completely dry. I would guess that baptist and chute are almost completely dry as well. As far as anchors go, I was in baptist/chute last october and the anchors were fine. There are four bolts and one giant chokestone at the big drop. The first drop in baptist is pretty darn easy to downclimb, but the anchor was set up well when we went. The one rap in chute was set up and had new webbing. But go prepared for anything. Anchors always change.

Did Music Canyon September 24th, which is kinda in the same area. It was muddy and wet. Big storms across Utah the last few days would lead one to believe that Baptist Draw Chute Canyon would be muddy and wet, and likely have swims.
