A very fun outing with Yannick and Klaus and company. We hiked up the ridge north of the canyon which had some class 3. In the canyon itself we found several big horn sheep horns. This was my first time rappelling on cairn anchors. It's not as bad as it sounds. On the hike out I found several dead tarantulas. Afterward I went solo to climb Sheep Mountain.

Wow, rappelling is already one of my least favorite climbing activities and I would not like those anchors one bit, no siree! Nice canyon though! Thanks for the report.

Cairn anchors? Yikes.
