Mar 21, 2019 — A bunch of friends happened to be in town and all free the same day, so I took a break from being solo (yay friends!) to head down a canyon together. Navigate to this underpass (35.7151286,-115.3642429) and follow the dirt road southwest.
From the mouth of the main canyon where the road heads into, head up to some old mining equipment and a mine. Shortly after, a slope leads south up to a ridge leading west. It's Class 2+, but makes for quick access to higher ground. This ridge mellows out and you can see the head of Antenna Canyon below. You could continue up to Peak 5413 from here if that's your thing, or just drop into Antenna Canyon's head. A series of easy rappels leads through the canyon (most of which use cairn anchors). Antenna canyon doesn't have stretches of narrows as interesting as the other routes in the area that I've been through (like Desperado, for example), but does end at a really nice 180 sloping rappel. Continue through a wash and head north back to the car.
