Constrychnine

On October 6th, 2013, Tony, Micah and I headed through Constrychnine Canyon. It's an engaging canyon with fantastic scenery.











Tony and Micah are excellent company; they also happen to be very talented canyoneers. It was great to share this adventure with them!

Razorback Canyon (Hog 3)

On October 5th, 2013, Tony, Micah and I took a lap through Razorback Canyon.

It's a great slot with extremely grippy walls; a great place to practice downclimbing and high-stemming. Is the hike in/out worth it? Yes. Even though this slot is short, it falls into the category of 'classic'. The high-stemming right hand turns are unique and hair-raising!
