Nice Vid Jared. Haven't ever seen it so wet! We usually set up a belay for the exit, but if your crew is all up for climbing it... I am disappointed that bolts have shown up again at the last rap again. Plenty of natural anchor choices available there. And yes, a sweet pack drag!
Thanks for watching Tom. This video is a couple years ago now and I think I've seen a more recent one from another group that looked like the bolts may have been removed since we were in there.
This canyon actually did get a little tighter than we expected, but it's not the tightest I've ever been in. The exit was brutal. I wanted to show some of the climb out so that others watching would better understand the climb out. The part I didn't show was the boulder scramble back to the top after the climb. That kicked my butt. It was a straight up climb through and over a boulder field.
There were a few spots where coming up to it I was a bit concerned, but once starting through it was a non-issue. There wasn't any place in the canyon we had to go high to get through. We stayed low the entire time.

Wow - not for the claustrophobic. Awesome video Jared! (The exit looked pretty interesting!)

It's been on my list for a while. May be this coming year.
It was my first time in the area and the canyon was well worth it.
Take me with you! I want.
This canyon looked pretty tight, did you ever get into a spot that you were worried about getting stuck?
I wrote that comment in the beginning. Consider it redacted...
