    Kinda like "keeper" potholes. If you got out, it ain't a keeper!

    When asked if he had ever been lost, Daniel Boone replied: "Nope, never been lost. Now I was a might confused for three days once..."

    Loving the new avatar, Tom.
    It's only "science" if it supports the narrative.

    Haha! I can say the same damn thing.
    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?

    “If a 65-year old woman got stuck in the slot canyon, then surely me, a young whippersnapper could do it no problem...”

    If I was in Denver and loved the outdoors (and didn’t know much about canyoneering) and saw these images/videos, it would of opened my world to this area and I would be on the next plane out there...

    ...only to get stuck, of course.



    Byron has foresight, I’ll be willing to bet in the next 5-10 years we will see a signpost at the entrance of each of the Irish canyons.
