I did this canyon once after a storm, and it was fun but easy to just swim across all of these great pools. Only spanned one narrow gap. This time it was dry as a bone, and I was amazed at how deep some of those potholes were. We spanned tons of stuff. Nothing difficult, but it was a taste of how canyons can bring unexpected surprises no matter how many times you've done it before. We brought a 100m rope for the ultimate alternate finish, but opted against it for time sake. Its a beautiful hike.
