It amazes me that more people haven't been wondering what is within the mountains and drainages of the black range.
We have been "discovering" more like finding what others have been hiding, within this range. We find old webbing and nothing more mentioned.
I get it. We don't want precious places stomped on,
we don't want pollution, we don't want people getting hurt. We also don't want that for the known canyons that everyone knows.
People are going to be who they are and we cant stop them from doing whatever they plan on doing unless
we are actually there.
That being said, I want our canyoneering community to enjoy these amazing places and have opportunities to see such wonderful places.
In addition to the ethos of canyoneering and using natural anchorage, this canyon has some brittle rock.
leave the bolts and hangers for the climbing walls
for everyone to see, Jibaro
canyon has 8 rappels upto 150 ft. with plenty of anchorage building material.
Now this canyon has a bit more effort to get to but once you top out, get ready for some beautiful scenery!
This canyon reminds me of blue velvet canyon but with bigger views and
some more interesting rappels to the water.
Once you get to the final narrow sequence, the rappels come in consecutive order and the scenery is just beautiful.
This canyon also has a platform where people can set up their packrats for a float down to the AZ hot springs.
make sure you bring webbing and rapides to replace anchorage and leave the bolting materials at home.
