A great day's canyoning was had with Dave Smith and John Mclaren in Avalanche Canyon, Arthurs Pass.
Though it was relatively cool in the valley at first, the hike uphill warmed us up!!
We managed to core shot one of our 60m ropes on the third rappel, on an unseen sharp rock. More disturbing was that this rope had only been bought the day before :(
The rest of the canyon was done without incedent, in pretty low water levels. There were still anchors from our previous descent on most drops, though all required replacement of webbing and some mallions..
