Safety Sunday: Have you ever turned around and not done a canyon due to weather? With all the rain in the Southwest this weekend, this seems like a timely question. Several years ago, after doing this approach hike, we saw the clouds building behind us and decided to skip the canyon. It was unlikely, (although not impossible!) that the canyon would flash. But what about being cold and wet at the top of a rappel, shivering and wishing your group would get down faster? Sometimes it’s worth remembering- this is supposed to be fun!
