Not Mindbender Canyon - Robbers Roost
Date: 04/26/2021
Did with Bence. Was difficult finding the trailhead, but eventually just went down the middle of the wash and towards the not so obvious "obvious" saddle. From there we had troubles finding out way to the bottom but went right and found a way down. We ran into someone that flew a helicopter to the edge of the canyon and chatted with him, finding that he had dropped some people off to do the canyon we were in, but was going to ask to have them cut out early. Canyon was fun with an airy rappel at the end. Luckily with the mochi steps there was a hand line left behind. Would have been a bit nervous without it. it's easy climbing, but a bit exposed. Plus was windy AF that day for us. Trip took a lot longer than we expected (7+)

Fun canyon where you ascend the rope you leave fixed. Don't forget to go up on the left ledge to get the amazing views of the canyon where you turn around. Also had fun up climbing the section he said you can go around to skip.

Did 1 the first day. Then did 4 & 2 the second day. After doing 2 we bushwhacked down to hog springs. Would not recommend. Also ran into poison ivy. Maybe we missed the trail? Didn't get to see the waterfall and the pool was gross, found a little pool on the way to hog springs for a dip

Birthday canyoneering in my birthday suit. did with Doug and Bence. had some swimming and was able to get out of the keeper by partner assist/climbing. was able to do without wetsuits in high 70s. Was able to downclimb the canyon including when going over the chockstone though that was a bit exposed

Did with Bence after doing arsenic. Was able to down climb the whole thing and then did the climbers exit. though we may have bypassed the climbing some how? we never saw a deadfall or felt like we were climbing.
