That looks amazing!! I wanna go!

The photo of Ron & Aysel is really nice - great lighting. Was that your 'good' camera, or did the Olympus just pick a good time to work well?

Matt, I've been looking through your older trip reports now that I'm canyoneering. I really appreciate your work. This one in particular looks like a lot of fun.

Thanks buddy

yeah this is a nice one, it's gonna be hot this time of year. wear your asbestos undies!

the anchors are probably pretty old now. there was some strong rains likely washing away some of some anchors

to avoid the shuttle one group has hiked the chorro grande trail, making a loop.

I would go with one of you guys first before going alone or with others. Maybe one of you guys forgot something in the canyon and have to go back and get it... when it's cooler, of course. ;-)

I definitely forgot something in the canyon next door to this one. (Black Friday canyon). A Thanksgiving weekend repeat would be fine with me!
