The Canyon” type thing.

This book is well on it’s way to becoming reality and dozens of canyoneers ha

ve already submit stories, some humorous, some serious and one legendary.

Anyhow…. If you have or know of any good stories I would be interested in h

earing about them. There would be no money involved, just the fame and fortun

e of having your story published where others could enjoy reading it and the

knowledge that you preserved a bit of our canyoneering heritage for the futur

e. I believe this book will become the one must have item in every canyoneer

s library.
