Epic Canyon

June 6 2013

We've been feeling real lazy lately, that we have only been doing pretty easy canyons. You know, the kind with a 5 minute approach, and an hour exit. We were also training up a climbing friend of ours.

Water levels were low, and it's been warm for a few weeks now. Canyon had nothing but super greasy rock, with some mustard-colored algae. My girlfriend had the hardest time jumping off a 12ft rock, but for some reason, had no issues jumping a 35ft one.

Canyon egress, sadly has grown over a little again.

In the end, fun day, and took us about 5hrs, car to car. Such a classic canyon.

...and it's been warm for a few weeks now.

Yes, since the last ice age.

Look of disgust at her disobedient foot. Classic!

Thanks again for sharing Ren!

Right where her foot got stuck, is a great place to mess with friends. Just clip into the bolt.. block the water off, and let it build up behind you. Once they're heading down, move back, and push all the water forward. You end up giving people quite the shocking splash of water.

Are the fixed egress lines in good shape?

yeah, they are still kickin strong. Bunch of trees fell all over the place though.
