Canyon/Day 1
Eagle/Forgotten Canyons – San Rafael Swell
Probably would have died too if I went in there…
Walking across the mesa, headed towards the canyon. Watch out for biological soil crusts!
Slotting up…
Up the friction slab…
Side journey to see the arch…
Close up of the arch…
Can’t fool me…that’s a tree, not a cell tower 🙂
Deb gets her goat feet on…
Down the chute…
Managed to avoid the small pool of water and mud…
Looks like a tonsil hanging down a throat in the canyon…
Final rappel, landing in a large pool of stinky water and mud. Keith took one for the team and went first, and set up a guided rap for the rest of the team. Thanks Keith!
A few Douglas-Fir trees live in this canyon. Deb said hello to each of them…
