We've done and seen plenty of "not so smart" things in canyons. Learn from our mistakes so you don't make the same ones!

Even better, take a class or two from Kristin at Altura Adventures: https://www.altura-adventures.com/

When a rappeler is stuck or injured they may have to be lowered. Rigging releasable provides quick and easy rescue options to the team.

Also, the world's first canyoneering rap song! (Lyrics below.)

---------------------------------------------

The canyon’s callin’; Rodcle’s haulin’; Don’t forget the rope; Or you'll be free-fallin’

Bike helmet’s packed; the Hoka’s strapped; Cuz da’ noob is greener than a Benjamin stack.

Vocal Ninjas, flossin’ topo; Grindin’ peaks, like a hippo; Shoulda rode a horseback; Thai-ger, give my biner back

Packin’ the ATC; Friction free; Falling faster than Death Valley scree.

The anchor’s bomber; Don't call for mama; Smoother on the line than Barack Obama

Vocal Ninjas, with the swagbags; Moonwalkin, on a rock crag; Squeezin, in a slot crack; Thai-ger, give my biner back!

Da’ Feet are ready; Brake hand is steady; I'm about to rap; Get the confetti ready.

The VT’s wrapped; Crowd’s ready to clap; Gotta get moving; Cuz I need my nap.

Vocal Ninjas, with the jet lag; Dropping bombs, like a rope bag; I'm a pro rapper, give me some slack; Thai-ger, give my biner back!

Yeah, no time for delay; Callin’ for a belay; Movin’ slow on the line; Like seniors at a buffet

Time to call SAR; It’s (0.4) point four to the car; But my water’s warm; And da’ phone’s got one bar

Vocal Ninjas, biner airtags; Making fun of, climber dirtbags; Quick, on the comeback; Thai-ger give my biner back!

Yeah; Give my biner back.

Uh, Yeah; My iPhone says it's at your house dogg.

Dang; Calling SAR again.

Just want my biner back...

Canyoneering is a team sport where everyone performs one or more roles in the canyon to help the team succeed. Discussed in this episode are the defined roles like Team Leader and the lesser roles and tasks that anyone and everyone on the team should perform along the way to better ensure a safe and enjoyable canyon experience.
