Dan Ransom, noted photographer, Olympic level pot shot tosser, world traveler and challenger of the status quo, here offering a hand line into a keeper pothole in Kindersluss Canyon, out in Glen Canyon
Today’s offering is from Dave Nally from near the rim of the Grand Canyon. With Todd’s guide book coming soon, many wonderful, if vigorous adventures will be more available. Hoping those that went last week can share more images, if they can.

Some advanced spotting techniques…..
Six foot, 5 inch Murray Clark has Eric Godfrey on his shoulders. Six foot, 3 inch Jud Eades (yellow helmet) provides extra stability for all involved, while 115 pound Jenny West climbs down the groove, perhaps using a right arm bar climbing move, to keep control of the descent as long as possible, allowing the big boys to capture her safely. The pothole problem in Sinusitis Canyon, Glen Canyon, April 14th, 2011….Oh and Landon Michaels and Mark Smith are ready to help them all out of the keeper, after the capture.

Here is Randy Willes hand lining, just after getting off rappel, above a difficult keeper pothole. Tinnitis Canyon in the Warm Springs system. September 2010.
