Hype

Cameltoe is a not-very-technical canyon that drains into the Colorado River off the Potash Road. The canyon is more of a hike than other canyons described here, having only one rappel. Although the canyon appears to be done frequently based on the footprints on the trail, it is likely to be most enjoyed by hikers looking for a little bit of technical adventure, or beginning canyoneers.The area is frequented by hikers and climbers, don't expect solitude.

Comments

When we dropped into the canyon, we did one additional rappel. It was from a slung boulder in a shallow dish, down to a waist deep pool in a nice grotto. This might be one of the drops that Ryan says "can all be passed on the right" but passing it on the right seemed quite circuitous.
