    Black Void, Tributary of Fall Canyon, Grapevine Mountains, Death Valley Feb 17,2018

    Descending Black Void, the rappels come fast and drop big, more of a cliffaneering experience.
    We were back down in the Fall Wash pretty quick after climbing up the short cut-route to the ridges above Fall.

    Fall canyon in the Grapevines has a different look and feel to the rock than other areas in the Park. Not too crumbly by DV standards, in the shade mostly

    The canyon starts in a shallow slot followed immediately by the first rappel down a fluted dual stage. That is followed by a few pinch and knock chalk anchored rappels and ends with the partial free hang final rappel.

    It is a very nice half day canyon.

    Thanks to my canyoneering partners Lorin, Jeremy and Justin

    Fantastic...I'm jealous. As soon as it warms back up, I feel a road trip comin' on.
    Suddenly my feet are feet of mud
    It all goes slo-mo
    I don't know why I am crying
    Am I suspended in Gaffa?

    It's only "science" if it supports the narrative.
