    TR - Benson Creek 08/23/2020

    I think we picked a great time to to do this short and sweet canyon located just up of the road from Parowan, Utah.

    The temps were in the 70's, there was a slight breeze, the water was just less that ankle deep and the rappels were all in great shape.

    The adventure starts with a great lung popping, 850 foot hike up, around and to the top of the first rappel.

    First rappel is off of a rope and webbing slung tree, the rest are off of glue-ins and chains.

    Every waterpel is a real charm and hoot. The scenery in there is spectacular.
    Too short!!! and over too quickly!!


    Thanks to to my canyoneering partners; Beth, Lori and Carl

    Excellent! I just realized that it's been nearly a year since I touched a rope...everybody's been hunkered down. They're going to have a Rendezvous in Hanksville next month. I might try to swing that.
