  1. Wow quite the list. I have nailed a few of those and would love to do some of them with you.

    Don't do the chute/crack loop, of the 12/15(?) miles only 2 or 3 are really worth doing. The rest is just cross country slogging.

    More then a few of the tech canyons you listed has taken the lives of experienced canyoneers within the past few years. Canyonerring is not a forgiving sport, all its takes is one mistake.
    I am sure you heard the story of the couple in miners hollow last year. The wife fell while crossing a pothole and broke her arm. The husband spent two hours treading water trying to lift her out but She never made it... he watched her die then had to hike 5 miles or so out on his own.... crazy....
