Good Day Jim Canyon
verified
ACA 3B R
Unknown flood risk
Ticaboo, UT
Deep, tight narrows with five short rappels, none over about 66 feet, and keeper potholes to solve between them.
There are no bolted anchors here and the local ethic is to keep it that way, so bring what you need to build natural ones plus pothole escape gear. Climb-Utah's photos flag two keeper pothole problems, which is where the time goes on a slow day. Route finding is entirely on you: no trails, several lookalike drainages, and Hard Day Harvey joins from next door before the last rappel, so carry a track and know which fork you are in. Access is either the high clearance road across the mesa or a boat from Lake Powell.
