    Orderville Canyon, Narrows

    We did this on Saturday this weekend. Cool canyon with great scenery, but 12 tough miles after doing the Subway the previous day. My feet and legs were toast.

    This was my first time through so I really didn't know how the water levels compared, but I heard they were lower than average. Still had a few swims though. No harnesses used, the hand line method seemed to work fine for us, and we had some bigger fellas in the group. Gloves are a must though.

    Orderville is spring fed so I've never really noticed a big difference in water levels, other than the sand washing in and out creating and deleting swims.

    We were probably half way through the canyon when we started hearing a thunderstorm for maybe half an hour. That kept us on edge a bit.
