Since we didn't get to do Yankee Doodle the day before, we came back out to do it and figured we might as well do Boltergeist again. With just Dad, Nate, and me, we managed to knock it out in a little over an hour. Not bad! Was just as fun the 2nd time. |

Came out with Dad, Nate, Kylie, and Booker. We had the intent to do both Boltergeist and Yankee Doodle, but Booker was pretty slow ð, so we ended up only having time for Boltergeist that late in the afternoon. Super fun beginner canyon--way more fun than the description led us to believe. Booker had an absolute meltdown at the top of each rappel but was back to his jovial, braggadocios self by the time he got 1/3 the way down each of them. Overall, was still super fun having him along even if he did freak out too much. This was Kylie's first canyon, and she liked it a lot. Skipping the last rappel made for a quick and easy exit even with Booker. Glad we did this one instead of going for Yankee. Yankee would have been much tougher with Booker. |

Did the long route and got a bit lost, my group tried to scramble up from water canyon too early. Would recommend staying low in water canyon until you start seeing a trail marked by cairns, hike out along that felt easy enough! |

Went well. No water no problem. Make sure to stay on the left of the wall when you do the longer route. |

All raps are now bolted or tied off trees/rocks. Great canyon to do along with Yankee Doodle. |

Tried to take group theoufh, made it down 2 raps before white out snow conditions made us decide to hike out up rock fall. CO-guided |

Itâs not great. Dry and the raps donât justify the hike out imo. |

All water you could get around. We did it when it was partially snowing without wetsuits. Short & sweet. Last rappel is the best part of this canyon, plus there is no approach if you have 4WD. |

First technical canyon with the kids. Group of 8, 6 beginners took a long time to get down, abt 5 hrs for the full descent. The last 100' rap was the most fun for the kids. This canyon was a great canyon to teach beginners some technical canyoneering skills as it has several places that use various skills, but no areas are too demanding or difficult. |
