Woolshed Ck Canyon, Mt Somers

I had a great day hosting some seasoned American visiting canyoners and a couple of new Kiwi Canyoners.

Sonny and Calius had barely arrived in NZ the day before, but were awake and on time in the morning.

The day was more or less perfect, hot, cloudless and windless. Perfect conditions to make the most of the cool waters of the canyon.

Our rope got a little stuck on the second rap, so I got to ascend it to put it right. Sonny put us all to shame with his jumping talent in the two decent jumps in the canyon.

Andy and Rudy both seemed to really enjoy the canyon, hopefully I'll con them on another trip in the future.

Zoomed through the slot in 2hrs giving our visitors plenty of time to get back to thier theatre in the evening.
