Thompson Canyon (Hellsgate Wilderness)

Another new find and first descent. Discovered by Jay Wisocki and first descended by, Jay Wisocki, Erek Burek, Jonathan Suguitan and Cole Anderson on 8/3/2019. https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.2692943280726095&type=3 Fun descent with several rappels, swims, and down climbs.

Fairly easy approach with no issues to speak of.

Rappels up to 100ft and a great hike/swims up Tonto Creek around 1.5 miles to the exit drainage. R1: 100' rock pinch in canyon. R2: 85' boulder RDC. R3: 85' small tree in canyon directly into Tonto Creek. Two possible short raps between R2 and R3, or careful downclimbs. No rope pull issues with any of the raps.
