One of the primary goals of my trip to the Southwest was to do some technical canyons with Aubrey. We started with Pine Creek Canyon, a classic, and relatively straightforward for newcomers to canyoneering. After a few rappels came the best part: double arch alcove as it is referred to in the guidebooks.
