Constrychnine
On October 6th, 2013, Tony, Micah and I headed through Constrychnine Canyon. It's an engaging canyon with fantastic scenery.
Tony and Micah are excellent company; they also happen to be very talented canyoneers. It was great to share this adventure with them!

Random thoughts:
The rope grooves in photo #1 were are all preventable. Extending the anchor at this drop is so easy a caveman could do it.
Anybody bitching about the missing bolts on rap #2 is as blind as a bat. There is a mother hugging tree 50 feet back from the drop that works great! The tree anchor allows for an easy start and also eliminates the possibility of leaving a rope groove (some were present above the RDC boulders). Also, we could easily move some of the boulders on the RDC side above the drop. Yes, one of them had webbing around it.
This exit is very easy and highly recommended: 38THE MOST TALKED ABOUT CANYONEERING TRIP OF 2017 - WEST CANYON VIA HELICOPTER.

Great pics! Thanks for posting them up. Didn't happen to find a nice pocketknife in there did ya? I lost a really cool black pocketknife in there back in June...
It's only "science" if it supports the narrative.

Thanks. Yes, that's me. We used a courtesy anchor for me and Tony, then Micah rapped last off the extended anchor.
No, we didn't find anything. Thanks for not writing poetry about your lost knife.
I'm pretty sure it is the same. It looked somewhat spicy (thus the courtesy rap), but Micah didn't say anything about it when he went last. He is pretty good at dealing with anchors that extend over the edge.THE MOST TALKED ABOUT CANYONEERING TRIP OF 2017 - WEST CANYON VIA HELICOPTER.
