San Rafael Reef Canyons with the OG Crew


Convinced Garrett and Chris to tag along for Buckeyes Canyon. Garrett has followed the Utah canyon scene for the last few decades, so wanted him to have the chance to get out with the OG canyon crew (Bucky and Tom) to help stoke our future canyon wanderings.


Fun 24 hours in the desert! Very excited to be invited on this trip by Bucky and sad that he was not able to come due to Covid. This was my second time in this area of the Swell. Bucky coordinated a trip back back in 2016, where we climbed and descended canyons over three days and two nights on the reef.


That was my last experience with the "fiddle stick" and the "sand trap" - and sadly my brain no longer remembered the stone knot. Fun techniques for rappels and maybe something that I'll be able to use on my own in the future.
