Egypt 2&3 Slots August 21

We started the day off dropping into Egypt 2 via a tricky downclimb that put us into the canyon below the rappels. We headed down Egypt 2 then went up Egypt 3. Both canyons had nice pothole sections and narrows but Egypt 3 was nicer in all respects (although there were long stretches of slot less than one foot wide that slowed us down). I'll admit to satisfaction at seeing a 6+foot man fight his way through the skinnies (bottom photo). The top of Egypt 3 was probably the most enjoyable stretch. Then we drove the long drive down Hole-In-The-Rock Road to the Forty Mile Ridge trailhead and began the hike into the confluence of Coyote Gulch and the Escalante River.
