Larry ?

Correct area (Robbers Roost), but not Larry. This canyon is east of Larry.

Ok, I have not done anything in the Roost east of there, but since no one else is guessing: Smallcatraz ?

Hint #1: it's in Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument

Hint #2 it's on the west side of the Escalante river

Hint #3 it's upstream from Neon

Hint #4: This canyon is in the upper reaches of a larger canyon system that is a tributary of the Escalante River. The larger canyon has a shape that is more controlled by geologic structure, rather than just flowing water (no meanders, etc. formed in an area of jointing resulting in a curving shape). There are smaller side-canyons (of which this is one) that come into the canyon at nearly right angles. At the head of the canyon, there is a series of other joints that run almost north-south, but curve slightly to the northwest and these features also intersect the Escalante further upstream. Looking at an aerial photo should give this away easily

Hint #5: this canyon is listed on Slotmachine's canyon map

Hint #6: This canyon is also listed on the Climb Utah website and is rated 3BIII

Hint #7: this canyon has an alternate name that is based on a street intersection theme. The canyon and tributaries, as mentioned above, intersect at or near right angles.

Hint #8: this canyon has a "Zion-esque" look to it and contains dark passages and pools of water.

Hint #9: FRENCH DE wrote a trip report on it here on Bogley back in 2008

Hint #10" the "Kelsey" name for this canyon is from the "flat" above the canyon


Name the canyon.
