Hey all,

How's Jacks looking for the weekend? Anyone know?

We've had a TON of rain in ABQ lately..which is awesome.. but made me wonder if the flooding has hit the canyon out there.

Anybody got the inside word?

Appreciated in advance,

Yup, those 30 ft walls are completely under water. You should probably come down to the tunnel instead this weekend. Much safer bet. Haha I have no idea about the cunnies in Jacks. Hopefully we'll see you at some point this summer.

I was up there on Sunday and it was pretty dry. there were still some puddles and muddy spots where the water tends to collect. Not sure if Swiss Wall is accessible without getting wet though.

Ken yah gotta get down soon! Heading out with the good woman this weekend tho and i think the tunnel would put her off climbing for good haha. Hope you're crushing

If you are near Winslow, try Winslow Wall, very close to Jacks Canyon and well worth a trip. Only caveat is that you must rappel into and climb out of the canyon. The climb out is easy though.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
