Información
A short fun creek with a handful of low angle rappels and a little bit of accent flow to keep it fun. A great place to go if its warm out after some long rains and other canyons are running too high. The canyon gets its technical rating of "4" because it has been ghosted.
Cómo llegar
Drive on NF-23 until you pass the Blue Lake campground. About 2 miles later you'll see a spry painted arrow and the word "LOOK!" on the road pointing to the left side. You'll then pass the drainage and park at the pull off. The approach is on the lookers left side of the creek. Just walk next to the creek and drop in wherever you feel is best. We started at 46.37619, -121.72176 so that's where this beta will start. There is an additional rappel above it, up to you if you want to fight for it. We didn't.
Descenso
R1: 60 feet from a thin willow under a fallen tree. Neat! Walk down a slippery and slick rock watercourse. Rap 2 and 3 are back to back and could possibly be done as one. Though the pull would be difficult. R2: 70 feet from a patch of willows R3: 40 feet from a patch of willows R4: 105 feet from a strong root DRC Walk down the creek a bit further staying DRC out of the flow as the canyon turns into bedrock. In high flow (not sure if the canyon ever experiences high flow) you may need to rappel to the anchor for R4. It the drop to R4 has been down climbed but was spicy. R5: 120 feet from willow DLC. This rappel is quite fun and drops onto the trail below. Cross the trail to the final rappel sequence. R6 and R7 may be done as one rappel with a long enough rope. Additionally R6 is LONGER from the watercourse. We could NOT find ample anchor materials in the watercourse and had to down climb to a ledge with willows DLC. A bolt will provide a great rappel line here. R6: (From the slippery ledge DRC and off some willows): 110 feet to the large ledge below. R7: 40 feet and is actually vertical! You're done!
