Basically just a stunt rappel.

Cómo llegar

From the Casablanca Canyon parking area, walk up the canyon until you reach a gully on the south side at coordinates 37.982024, -110.481763. Climb the gully nearly to the top, where a wider ledge can be followed around to reach the top of the south fork at the same coordinate point. From this ledge, look for a place to climb upward onto the next tier. Contour around the terrain until you are positioned above the north fork. From there, descend into the canyon by zig‑zagging down through boulders and a series of ledges. Continue down to the top of the rappel located at 37.982314, -110.484460.

Descenso

The anchor is set from a large boulder about 20 feet back from the drop. Use a Fiddlestick or smooth operator to pull from this anchor, or set up a longer anchor that extends closer to the edge for an easier pull. The rappel looks deceivingly big. Pass two ledges on the way down - from the second one you can check that your rope is on the ground before proceeding.

Retorno

A short walk with a little bit of easy scrambling down lower Casablanca Canyon will return you to your car.
