SGR, Moab has a legitimate Canyon
My buddy Tad and I went thru yesterday. Great canyon, it's right on the edge for a couple of 50 year olds. The crux section is the real deal. I hate height and IT WAS NOT MY FAVORITE PLACE. Tad went right across no problem. We rigged off of the two small arches and I rappeled down that way. We had no interest in trying to scurry out to that tree anchor. when I went down I realized there was no way we could pull our rope so Tad belayed himself off the new anchor and got out to the tree. With the belay he felt ok. We'd like to know who and how he put that tree anchor in? Impressive. The other rappels in the canyon are as nice as anywhere.
The hike in is 2 hours thru unbelievable country. It was overcast, if warm you would die. CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH. The view from the top cannot be explained. The last bit of the hike back to the Jeep sucks.
The whole Canyon was much better then we thought it would be. Good find very cool area. Would go back. Sorry no pictures.
