VROOM VROOM

Parked at the dirt lot.

Left car: 1410
Dirt road: 1420
Henninger Flat/s: 1450
Telephone Trail: 1510
Feet wet: 1526
Geared up, moving: 1531
End of last rapp: 1701
Car: 1725

3:15 car to car

Water is real low. Slides and jumps are still safe (except 2nd to last rapp), but you kinda have to be careful a little so you don't git hurt.

Can shave off 30+ min. :-)

Anyone know the record?

First time I went through, I was a newbie and in a huge group (12 people maybe). Took 11 hours! That's some kind of record too, probably.

Good job, Zippy.

I dont know if either counts unless you are wearing the official "Eaton Canyon" jacket....by Ring of Fire. Only the jacket too :shock: Additional clothing is cheating...just ask the swimming community.

BTW Taco, are you up to helping me ascend 'fallen canyoneer's point' near Idlehour? I think I can get up there from another direction, but dont want to take any chances that I fall short of the goal like last time.

Its an unofficial highpoint on the ridge. Its just one of those places where climbing skillz might be necessary to summit. I guesstimate the short climb at no more than 5.4, if it even needs to be climbed like I said.


Its the highpoint on the left.
