HikeUp and I are going to descend Cedar Canyon from Thunder Mtn down to Icehouse Canyon this Saturday (discovery hike, cross-country). We're going to start really early to beat the heat. If you're interested, PM for details.

Something like this sounds like some fun. I wish I could join you guys, but I'll be on another mountain. Please post your TR with pics.

Good luck.

That canyon SUCCCCCKKKKKKSSSSS in snow... wear some protection from thorns!!!! Alex and I did it... we both got a bit scratched up, though my very clumsy self fell a bit more I think.

Not a fun way home.

Dudley had it right, stay high and on the south side of the canyon as you near the bottom of the upper part of the cyn.

Tim and I made it down with only a couple of minor scratches (I led us too far down on the north side of the canyon when I should have switched to the south side

). Hopefully Tim will file a TR (he has a good gps track of the route I think) and I'll add some pics later.
