Thread: Little Blue John Rappel Lengths

    Little Blue John Rappel Lengths

    I'm planning on heading down Little Blue John Canyon and up the main fork of Blue John next week.

    I have not been in these canyons before and am having trouble finding reliable beta on the rappels down Little Blue John Canyon.

    Could somebody share the rap lengths into Little Blue John? Has anybody done these canyons recently? Conditions? Is the climb out of Main Blue John really that bad?

    surprised shane hasn't already plugged his site. I'll do it for him then for a small fee:
    everything you need to know: http://climb-utah.com/Roost/bluejohn1.htm

    Is it bad climbing out up main? well it depends. are you a great climber in canyons? do you like off width climbing in a slanted v slots? if you answered yes & yes you will love may even go do laps. if you answered hell no to any or both perhaps a different exit would be better.

    I left it open for you to post your statement about climbing up main: "Do not attempt this optional route with beginners or non-climbers. Bottom line is experienced slot rats will have little problem with this route while posers may be forced to seek an alternative exit."

    Any other plugs you want?

    For an extremely low price I subscribed to Climb-Utah.

    Not only did it have the answers to my questions, but now my hair is thicker and fuller and my sweat smells like Eternity cologne!

    Thanks Climb-Utah!

    Thanks for your help guys, I am looking forward to the poser filter at the top of Main Blue John.
