| CANYONEER | 06/20/2025 | 3B I |
| Organized, report and photos by Mike Nelson Participants: Greg Clark, Kevin Flynn, Scott Feldman, Zack Heuscher and Mike Nelson The five of us successfully navigated the left and right forks of Blarney canyon on Saturday, despite high temperatures in the 90s, with Kevin leading the way. Rated a 3A, the left fork had 3 rappels of 12m, 8m and 15m. The right fork had 2 rappels of 15m and 6m. It was a 6 hour 5 mile adventure. Four of us successfully navigated the right fork of Leprechaun canyon on Sunday, with Scott leading the way. The temps were much more reasonable, in the 80s. Rated a 3B, there were 15m and 10m rappels, along with quite a few entertaining down climbs, ankle to knee deep water in a couple of places, and a lengthy narrow section often no wider than our shoulders (and sometimes less) . It was a 5.5 hour 5 mile adventure. The views on the approach were spectacular as were the features within the canyon. |
