Thinker Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Climb: Zion National Park-The Subway aka Left Fork of North Creek Date of Climb: 8/21/2005 Trip Report: 2 mile approach thru alpine meadow/forest and over slickrock 7 of us made the descent into canyon, ran the canyon for about 6 miles, and made the greuling mile+ hike out of the canyon. Larger photos are availble in my gallery. Gear Notes: 60 feet of static rope for rappeling. 10 feet of webbing just in case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slothrop Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Awesome! Is this the kind of thing that you need a reservation/permit for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thinker Posted August 23, 2005 Author Share Posted August 23, 2005 yes, and they can be difficult to obtain. policy limits groups to a max of 12. we got our 3rd choice of days and were limited to 8 people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom253 Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 Sweet photos. Good to see some canyoneering photos on here. My girlfriend and I were hoping to hike the Narrows in June but the run-off had the water levels too high. Did ya happen to hike up Angel's Landing? Nice hike minus the damn crowds. I didn't figure that many damned people would be there. Toward the top it was like waiting in line for a ride at Disneyland. Still worth it either way.

Thinker Posted August 31, 2005 Author Share Posted August 31, 2005 nope, we didn't have time to do Angels Landing. Others in our group have and I look forward to hitting it midweek or late afternoon to avoid some of the crowds. Seems like it would be a good candidate for a headlamp descent to filter out some of the tourons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
