We did some canyoneering outside of Zion National Park (most of the canyoneering in Zion requires a permit and is very competitive). We drove to Colorado City and hiked up Water Canyon which is a popular canyoneering site. The road to the trailhead was pretty washed out and rutted. From the time we arrived at the trail head until we hiked up canyon to our jump off point it took about 2 hours. We had about 7 rappels all of which were fun as we descended the canyon. The last one was over water and it was cold. We actually welcomed the sun on the hike out. Paul got turned upside down on one rappel but other than that no injuries. We had a great time. On the left you see Gabe on a rappel and Paul already on the bottom. Of the right you see me swimming through the water with the rope on the final rappel.
