The Dolphin

The main Water World complex is arrived at after you hang a right (west) at the junction of the two canyons, scramble up a short arête past an enormous pothole on the right, and pull a bouldery move up some polished slab around a large boulder jam featuring a unique chockstone.

The Dolphin is the first route encountered shortly past the boulder jam.

There are currently five routes here, side by side. Looking up-canyon, the routes are on the left (south) side and they seem to get shade for most of the day.

Continuing up-canyon there is a 8 foot scramble up a steep water polished pour-off and then you will encounter the next group of climbs.
