El Cap Canyon status
|
Does anyone know definitively if there are any access issues? I have heard part of the canyon might be on private land. How about recent route development? Any of that? |
|
If you read The Homestead guide it gives you a brief history of the area. Here's what it say's. |
|
From what I have seen online in searching about this subject, the land is still open to hikers/canyoneers. If it is simply a traspassing issue, then perhaps this is not the case anymore. |

I was just out at El Cap Canyon last weekend (canyoneering), and I saw no signs anywhere telling me to keep out. I did find an empty spray backpack and a can of indoor fogger in a cave near the narrows - looks like someone was hanging out there for a while. The bees cool my stoke for much of the climbing out there. |

Anyone have any info on current access status? |
|
Nothing has changed. If you do enter from the top of the canyon, you will be trespassing. Entry from the bottom of the canyon is not through private property. There is a way to get into the canyon from below. |
