The Great White Icicle (June 2013)
On June 29th, 2013, Nick, Liz, Tony, Steph and I took a refreshing lap down the Icicle. This was Liz's first canyoneering experience.
The water was the highest I've seen, this being my third time through. The temperature in the valley was about 105, so the extra water was welcome.
Just few photos to share:

Another fun day with some great friends.

Thanks so much @Slot Machine and @Absolute Gravity! Yesterdays trip up the Icicle was incredible!
But honestly, one of the best things was getting to meet you all in person. Thanks again! (you will have to teach me more about this figure 8 block that you use.)
