South Coyote Buttes (Cottonwood Cove) - Vermilion Cliffs, AZ
A few years ago we did South Coyote Buttes by parking a 2wd vehicle at Rainbow Hills and then hiking over the ridge. ruclips.net/video/8rXFWdQF_sI/видео.html
This time we easily drove our 4x4 van all the way to the Cottonwood Cove trailhead. This made for a much more convenient day of hiking.

More canyon beta in the Canadian Rockies. www.wexgear.com/canyoninginthecanadianrockies July 7th, 2024. When looking for a shorter day in the North Ghost, Wully Canyon is a great option. But don't follow our exact approach route. You can see from our GPS track that you'll be able to cut off a lot of the distance and bushwhack that we encountered. Note: Be prepared with a number of quick links j...

More canyon beta in the Canadian Rockies. www.wexgear.com/canyoninginthecanadianrockies July 6th, 2024. The full Valley of the Birds canyoning route should be on everyone's canyon to do list. While there are plenty of deeper and prettier canyons out there, this one is simply a whole lot of fun. 10 rappels, lots of down climbs, and more than a dozen slides.

Просмотров 71Месяц назад
May 4th, 2024. After 3 days in Robbers Roost and another 3 days spent along the Hole in the Rock Road, we wanted to take it easy as we made our way further south. Still in Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, these were a couple quick stops we made while driving down Cottonwood Road.

More canyon beta in the Canadian Rockies. www.wexgear.com/canyoninginthecanadianrockies June 1st, 2024. I'm posting this video of Prairie Dog Canyon to give visual beta to people who are new to canyoning. Experienced canyoners would likely not be interested in this canyon. But it's a good route for beginners still learning to rappel. All anchors are fully bolted and all rappels are less than 15...
Scouting Opal Creek Canyon & Whiteman Falls - Kananaskis, AB
Просмотров 892 месяца назад
August 13th, 2023. A short video of us scouting Opal Creek Canyon and Whiteman Falls. Eventually we'll get a crew together and canyon this route. Whiteman Falls is 100 m high, so we'll have to bolt a hanging rebelay station halfway down. I've been told that there's already a bolted midway station for ice climbing, but who knows if it's in a good location for canyoning. Once down the falls, I'll...
