Super cool approach with 3rd class scramble, gorgeous views at the top of the mesa. All bolted rappels. All but the last rappel are sloped slick rock. Last rappel is heady - just over 100’. * Use 200’ for all raps, add the 100’ on the last rap |

Think done with Dillon in spring of 2024. One of the three you can access from climbing up the rock pile in Arches. |

Let’s just say, I won’t be dropping any tiers for this one. Solid canyon with bolted anchors or chains on every rappel. All the rappels are too long for the 120’ on it’s own. The first two rappels are over slick rock(not very fun). The last rappel was a 120’ drop of pure, unadulterated bliss 🤌 2.5 hours |

Really fun rappels done with some beginners. Dropping in first down the free rappel with only moonlight was a beautiful experience. |

Super easy start, bolted anchor on the left that looks less accessible than it is. Didn’t throw enough roped, probably 80-90’ but a single 200’ was fine. Did a Biner block after a contingency just in case Walk left side of a pothole full of sand, found a bomber double point anchor on the left wall. A 200’ rope is going to be just enough to make this work. Our rope bag made it to 5’ off the ground Far right side is a bolted anchor, long blue webbing sling so you can safety and look over the edge (prob not enough to see the bottom). Maybe 150’ rappel? Definitely used the other 200’ as the pull, a shorter pull probably would’ve been fine. Tons of rope grooving but don’t use a CEM, lots of knobs to catch the loop. This was the one I had issues wanting to use an auto lock but then not setting it up right, burned my hand Went right to the exit instead of the left, did a grim crawl style belly crawl to get across to the last rappel of not tierdrop! Fun way to finish |

Fun. A bit of an intimidating transition to free hang on last big rappel. 1st rappel off tree definitely > 100' and requires a pull cord if using a 60m rope. |

KV. Did it twice. Easy pulls with the fiddle stick on the first rap off the tree. Rope got stuck on second rap. The third was hard to pull (use the webbing next time). We did a final rap, which apparently is unnecessary. |
