Big Spring NW Fork March 2014

[WorkBad]

28 March 2014, after having just finished the Big Spring East/West loop, three of us decided to do a third canyon, Big Spring NW Fork. Total time truck to truck was 1.5 hours. Keeping in mind we could run out of daylight due to the late start, we moved quickly through this canyon. This day the canyon was very straight forward, no escapes, very little mud, very little water. We basically rampage through and quickly made it back to camp for beers around the fire (my biggest motivator). Equipment used included a 110ft rope 110ft pull cord, and plenty of hardware.

All beta for this canyon was obtained through www.climb-utah.com

Enjoy the photos.

Looks like the TR was from about a year ago, so I don't know how helpful road conditions will be...
