elkhunter Report post Posted November 13, 2009 Shooterpar- It's me, Tyler, the fella you ate breakfast with at the cafeteria in the AM at NAU, I just spent 6 months up in Alaska last year working for NSRAA as a fish biologist and got to do some work on commerical fishin rigs, mostly purse seining. I spent quite some time down in Sycamore canyon during shed hunting season and water wasn't that hard to find, there were often pools of water down there after the snow has melted and lasted as long as April. I picked up some dandy elk sheds at the bottom of sycamore canyon, it would be a great idea if you hit it up at that time right when bulls are dropping and you'll have plenty of water at the bottom, beware of warm days..sycamore canyon'll flood up like a MOTHER!

GRONG Report post Posted November 13, 2009 If in fact you're talking about the one in 6b then it sounds like a fun hike but I'd say it'd be tough to carry all the water you'd need for a few days up in that hot mother. Wouldn't bet a dollar that there's a puddle of water anywhere in that canyon as dry as it's been. Good luck if you go though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
