The Canyon

5 rappel, 14 hour door to door adventure. We took 2, 60 meter dynamic ropes to make this happen. We pick dynamic since the beta was thin and we were not sure if we would need to climb. In the end we needed the stretch as the last rappel which exceeded 200 feet (about 215).

Red Tape

There are no permits required. This canyon is located on public land, BLM, Forest Service.
