Great as a 1-car loop hike or a longer hike out
The Chute to a car shuttle. One method is to enter
at the 38°41'59"N, 110°47'32"W
(BD04) drop-in point, then go down Baptist Draw
to its confluence with The Chute and then head
up The Chute to where it begins to open - then
head up out of the canyon and cross-country back
to Baptist and down to where you entered.
Perhaps a more straightforward route is to head
down Baptist and continue down The Chute to where
a crosscut canyon enters from the west. Head up
this canyon back to your car (either at Cowboy
Camp or the parking spot listed below). Whichever
way you slice it, please keep it clean - this
is a no-bolt area. Check out the links for more
detailed beta descriptions.
Frequently dry after a long drought, but best
to go prepared - you may be doing some swimming
if there's been rain recently.
