Thunder Canyon (2017-01-21)
Tom led a great trip down Thunder Canyon. Thunder was spectacular, a really nice way to get into Claustral. We had perfect weather for the trip too.
The party in the upper section of Thunder Canyon
Jo ‘flying’ towards the main abseil (down the black hole)
The first abseil in the canyon is pretty nice
Tom above the second abseil (we used the same rope as the first)
The canyon takes a 90°C bend in a pretty dark & spectacular section
Canyon formation!
Silhouettes in the dark section
Srini in the canyon
Lots of ferns everywhere
Impressive walls
More impressive constriction dwarfing Jon & Tom
