Monday morning 10/9:  We woke up to rain, and the weather report indicated high flash flood danger.  So much for canyoneering.  We ate

a leisurely breakfast in town, poked around in the shops for a while, and watched Shackleton's Antarctic Adventure at the theater.  When

we came out around 1:30 PM, the sun was out and it was starting to clear up.  Hmmm.  What shall we do?  We quickly snagged a permit

for Keyhole Canyon and drove up through the tunnel to the trailhead.  It's a short sweet little canyon, but lots of fun. Still, we had to rush a

bit, since they were doing construction on the tunnel and would close for the night at 6:00 PM.  We quickly threw our gear into the packs,

left the car around 3:00 PM, and motored over the slickrock pass to the start of the slot.  We got back to the car at 5:30, threw all the wet

gear back in the car and zoomed back down the road and through the tunnel.  Whew!
