Parallel Play Beta
Location: Arizona, Mazatzal Mountains
Rating: 3B-III
Longest Rappel: 150′ (2 stage rappel) / 250′ (single rappel)
Parallel Play Canyon is a fun winter canyon in the Mazatzal Mountains with several great rappels including one that can be done as a single 250′ rappel or as a 2-stage rappel with the longest section being 150′ to a ledge. I would definitely do this as a winter canyon, because the flow is nice and you’ll definitely need a wetsuit. The hallway after the big rappel has a cold swimmer.
