    rappel from corona arch

    Does anyone have any beta for the corona arch rappel? How big? Anchor details? gotchas? etc?

    didn't see it on Shane's site.

    Thanks!
    Jason

    I know most will disagree but raping corona is about the same as having a pinic under delicate arch. But its moab so "do the dew."
    To add something constructive i have heard there are bolts, hangers, and plenty of rope groves

    Speaking of my accident. Last wednesday (June 2nd), I got my hard cast removed after 2 months. And Im really really lucky. The surgery went extremely well. No pain whatsoever now! I can stand up on it with full weight and walk without a limp. Now I just have 3 more weeks of physical therapy to gain back my range of motion.

    Be careful up there blowfishvodka. It's intimadating! The arch itself is about 130ft, but when u start to freehang, it's about 110.

    Btw, if u see a divot or small hole under corona arch - that's from me. I had a Biner on the back of my harness that created that hole when I landed.
