Two 18 footer Grumman aluminum canoes , 5 days and nights paddling from Carbella to Springdale. Somewhere after Livingston, we encountered a 2-3 foot waterfall. Does anyone know the location of this obstacle? It is on the left hand banks as you travel downstream. Rafts and float boats handle is nicely , canoes not so good. Thanks in advance for any info on what I call Niagara Falls
I believe it was near Jim Posewiz fishing access

Worldwide and why ? I’m having a hard time finding reliable information on canyoning routes that are truly worth the trip.

My favorites so far have been:

- Maglia (France - full day): beautiful narrow gorges, turquoise water, a stunning white cave, and waterfalls; lots of fun with high jumps and slides (unfortunately no longer accessible)

- Barbeira (Italy - full day): beautiful narrow gorges with lush vegetation and water trickling from the roots, turquoise water; lots of fun with high jumps and slides

- Sa Fosca (Mallorca - full day): a completely dark, very winding cave; the jumps and slides are less fun but very impressive and physically challenging

From September 2025, just left the original audio and pacing as it was.

no background tracks or cuts coming down the ridge last year.

Open it on YT app to look around.

Hey everyone,

I'm organizing a trip to Zion for April 10–17, 2027 (Saturday to Saturday) and am looking to connect with a few competent, safety-minded canyoneers to build out a solid crew.

Trip Overview

• Dates: April 10, 2027 – April 17, 2027
• Basecamp: Watchman Campground (camping each night, running canyons during the day)
• Objective: Tackling the high-quality classic canyons on our target list (e.g., Heaps, Imlay, Kolob, Mystery, Englestead, Boundary, Checkerboard, Das Boot, Orderville, Behunin).

What We're Looking For

• Technical Competence: Solid technical foundation—comfortable with efficient rope work, leapfrogging rappels, and utilizing retrievable anchor systems (Fiddlestick/Smoothie) as appropriate to protect the resource and move efficiently.
• Safety & Ethics: High standard for safety, clear communication, and a strict commitment to Leave No Trace (LNT) practices.
• Vibe: Positive, collaborative, and adaptable to changing conditions or permit availability.

If you’re interested, shoot me a DM with a summary of your technical experience, recent canyons you've run, and any gear/rope capacity you bring to the table.

Looking forward to getting a great group together!

PS: That's my RopeWiki profile with a snapshot of the canyons I have run this year. https://ropewiki.com/User:DorsaBrevia
I just started using RopeWiki this year. I did canyoning in my last life chapter, that are not on that profile. I have a skill set from my climbing and white-water kayaking background.

I'd love to not have my ascending plan be to use prussic's, and a guide told me he really liked the kong duck? Anyone strongly for or against this device?

Just out of curiosity, do we have any sort of gentleperson's agreement on whistle signals in the Southwest of the United States. Predominately talking about Arizona, southern Utah, and Colorado. And more specifically I'm wondering if continuous blasting on the whistle is universally expected to be for emergencies.

So I want to try canyoning. I can swim, but I'm not particularly practical. So I was wondering, let's say that it would be psychologically useful to me to know how much the moult actually helps to stay afloat. Does it help?

Yes, it was a skill issue. It also wasn’t my rope to loose so double whammy. I was on Great White Icicle today and dropped a red Imlay rope bag (and 60m rope) down the falls. It probably came to a stop somewhere below the third rappel .If anyone finds it and returns it to me I will reward them with a beautiful handmade piece of canyoneering gear (rope bag, chest pouch, etc).

Learn from my mistakes and clip those important goodies somewhere safe!
