Canyon Experience :
     

Descended early July 24. The short abseil near the top has changed – big rockfall on river left I think(?!), and is now definitely not jumpable, but surprisingly almost all of the other slides and small jumps are still doable! (Some pools near the very bottom seem shallower but can’t be sure.) Definitely still worthwhile.
