Has anyone been there as of late???
What is the water level like? It was pretty darn high a couple weeks ago and I have not been back since.

Is it good to go??
Cheers

Not that I live there anymore, but I've never not been able to get to it. You might get a little wet, and your slave might have to crane their neck a bit on a shitty slope, or up on the precarious ledge. But that never stopped me from lying to my friends about what they were in for, or acting like the belay wasn't that difficult!

thanks that helps :)

The amount of melt off in the last month came at a pretty rapid pace. The river was pretty high leaving not much room for a belay when i was there a few weeks back.

If anyone that has been in the canyon recently has seen it that would help.
thanks

Go try it, and if you can't get on it... Try TWITCH. Cut left just before heading up to whatever that high crag is. TWITCH is pretty rad.

SAL,

I have not been through CCC in a while, but I would think you could infer the probability of it being dry enough to climb by looking at river gauge height data. Notice it has dropped a foot in the last few weeks.
