| Hey! To all the GRAVITY fighters. I'm a Tri-state local with a small crew that love to raid the Grand Canyon and Zion. We like long strenuous trails, in and out in one or two days(Prefer one). I'm also interested in a canyoneering course any suggestions? |

| For canyoneering courses, check in the canyoneering section uder canyoneering links. There is a list of several canyoneering outfitters there. Or just go with someone else here on the forum. :2thumbs: |

| You have to bribe the canyoneers pro with goodies though, for some it's jerky, some redbull, some like apricot beer ... it's all about knowing what the person's weakest spot is :roflol: |

there is a canyoneering sticky thread at the top of the list. many canyoneering outfitters offer both courses as well as guided trips.
also i just added a section on canyoneering gear which might be helpful. |

Bright Angel down, and South Kaibab up and out in the Grand Canyon
Wildcat Canyon to The West Rim Trail to lodge, back out in reverse next day.
Don't seem like much, but after a two year bout with the big "C" mass radiation and a 70lb. weight loss in 10 weeks I thought I would get back to trail humping for thearapy. X-infantry it was a blessing to get back on the boots and complete the trails. So looking forward to more trails and slots. Thanks for the welcoming! |
