Starting from suburbia just west of Frenchman Mountain.
Headed along a dirt road to the canyon of choice.
Entering the sticky limestone drainage.
Some historic trash within.
Looking back down toward Las Vegas from within the canyon.
Arrows mark the way, usually unnecessarily, but sometimes they were helpful.
One of a few Class 3 moves. This is a small move leading to the crux, which you can sort of see on the top left of this photo. You have to climb into a notch.
Looking down from the crux. It's a Class 3 move to pull into this wedge.
More Class 2/3 fun stuff as you ascend.
Looking back down another move.
The final fun section bfore getting out of the canyon. An arrow points you to this traverse below a cliff band. It's a really interesting feature and is just airy enough to make you slow down.
Close-up of the exposure.
Looking back at the last traverse obstacle. An arrow points you this way for the way back.
Frenchman Mountain on the left. South summit on the right.
