Dry Mountain Canyon (Northeast Fork)

HIKED UP DRY MT FROM RACETRACK ROAD, AND THEN DECIDED TO EXPLORE DOWN THE NE FORK THAT WE COULD SEE FROM THE SUMMIT - IT NARROWED DOWN INTO A "SLOT-LOOKING' CANYON, AND WE WERE NOT SURE WHAT WE WOULD FIND DOWN THIS UNKNOWN CANYON. WE DID COME TO A 100 FOOT DROP AND DIDN'T HAVE THE GEAR TO RAPPEL IT. SO WE HAD TO FIND A DICEY DOWNCLIMB BYPASSING THE DRYFALL. VERY PRETTY CANYON, BUT ONLY THE ONE TECHNICAL SPOT. WORTHY HIKE, BUT NOT SO MUCH FOR CANYONEERING. STILL WORTH THE EFFORT EVEN THOUGH IT WAS A TEN MILE DESCENT TO GET BACK TO THE CARS.
