Wow. That's pretty low for Caramba. But I guess it'll do.

The Indians at the other end of the canyon say there's no wateir flow down there, trying to figure if there are least pumpable pools between.

Thank you Fred, was there at least any flowing out of caramba? These photos give me a little hope.

I think there would be although I did not go beyond the pools.There was a little flowing at Laws where I got some water.

Here is a video of the flow into the first pool

Steve,

There's obviously not much flow, but there is at least some flow. In sandier parts of the canyon, it's going to be 100% underground, but in rocky parts of the canyon, the water will be forced to the surface. So, there will be pools, but not a lot and not a lot of water.

You thinking about an Epic ascent? :)

An educational question I bet.

Steve said he was going for a sufferfest on Saturday, so I imagine the answer is a "yes."
