Hi Sarah. If you are interested in a class, or particularly are along the Wasatch front you can P.M. me or contact us through our website at darkhorseleadership.com Now Tom is right ZAC is a first rate outfit, however Clark and I are the best!! It's my fault I forgot to send Tom the memo about us being the best, not the oldest, but definitely the BEST

Oh...that's great!
And all along I thought canyoneering was just slidin' down a rope...
Thanks for the chuckle!
Ice, put together a Rocky Mouth gig next week! Let's git our noob on!
Since there's only a couple rappels, we'll have plenty of time to debate how to rig them...

Death Cricket-I'm sure you are a lovable human being in real life...but please learn when to shut the F up online. You are a troll to Bogley sometimes. Please stay constructive. That's all.

This is my opinion on canyoneering and what I feel should be done.
Keep an open mind. Learn from everyone you can, however learn it from one person at a time, along with their methods, and master it. Next, find someone with different methods, and learn it. Find out why one person uses "method a" vs "method b". Sometimes, one method works best in this situation, but won't work so great in another.
I come on here, and watch people argue what way is best. There isn't a single "best" way of doing things. Its what works for them and what they've learned. Reading their methods seem to work great in most of the canyons they've done, but doesn't work well in the canyons here. But i still practice it, because there could be a situation where I might need to utilize it. Maybe one day you could try combining methods, and create your own method of saving your ass, or someone else's.
Good luck, and stay safe.

@hummingbird you are most welcome to join us if you can make it Friday. We do have one spot left. I am new at this canyoneering sport myself and learning. I did take a three day course and highly recommend you do the same. I also support wearing a helmet and being very careful of the canyoneernig partners you pick. Not all are team players as I am sure you can tell by this thread. PM if you are interested in joining us. And if you come down bring your mountain bike and we will ride on Saturday!

you'll wake up someday and realize that "the Emperor has no clothes". Metaphorically speaking of course.
Let's not forget that I simply offered a noob a place on one of my trips, and it was suggested that I would endanger their life. Who is trolling here? Plus that was a great online spanking and was enjoyed by all. it made an entertaining thread.Your safety is not my responsibility.
