Hype:

Woody, although short in length, packs a powerful punch when it comes to potholes challenges. The canyon can be done with as few as one rappel, but a rope is needed for the challenge of getting into, and out of the many potholes.

My History:

I've been through Woody twice, most recently in the summer of 2008. At that time, the water level was covering the natural bridge in the penultimate potholes, and we couldn't even see it.
