Roamin' the Roost

Eric Godfrey on the final rappel in Water Canyon.
The itinerary called for 5 days in the Roost. 7 canyons. A few "old" classics, and a few "new" canyons from Kelsey's latest guide. Some slots were worth doing again, some were worth doing once, and perhaps a few are best described as more than I thought, but still not a lot of slot. But either way, October in the Roost is a mighty fine place to be, indeed.
Lost Park - A couple of short slots not far from the Bluejohn complex. Nice narrows, long walk.
Bluejohn Loop - Down the East, up the Main, with awesome light in the Cathedral Narrows.
East Water & Horseshoe - A decent slot and some of the best 'glyphs around.
Low Spur - Kelsey says it is the most unusual feature he's ever seen... We had to see for ourselves.
Smallcatraz - A short fork of TCB, with a few bizarre features.
Li'l Bull - Close to Chambers. And that's about it...
Chambers - Always a classic.
