The clouds start to roll in after sunset

Day 2

Looks like the middle of winter the way everyone is dressed! Not canyoning weather!

Canyon 1

After a short walk we are in our first canyon

Rich in the canyon

Our exit gully from the larger creek threatens to turn into canyon, but Simon looking down this little slot is as close as it gets

Canyon 2

Simon on the second abseil in our canyon

Looking down an impressive deep hole, with limited anchor options

Rich abseiling

Mel on a slide into a pool - I unfortunately pitch forward on this and sprain my thumb badly on a rock underwater, putting me out of action for the rest of the day

Rich traversing on the ledge above the canyon to get to the final anchor

Rachel in the larger creek
