Slideanide Canyon

Rappel 1 is the only true rappel in the canyon so bypassing it means that the skilled can downclimb the rest of the canyon, avoiding the need to rappel at all. If planning to skip R1 and not rappel mid canyon, you could leave ropes, harnesses, descenders, etc. behind and treat this as a class 2 slot. However, a rope for a handline may still be advisable.
