Englestead Hollows Rappels
- 10 rappels
Rappel 1
Length: 294 ft
Coordinates: 37.304955 ,-112.891302
Rappel 1 Anchor
There are multiple anchor options for this rappel. The tree directly to the left of the head of the canyon is the typical anchor choice. All of the trees near the head of the canyon are viable sturdy options.
Overview
Rappel 1 can be anchored from various trees at the head of Englestead Hollow. The tree just at the head of of the canyon is the usual choice for an anchor. Rappel down a beautiful fluted chute almost 300 ft. to the canyon bottom. Enjoy the descent with its beautiful views.
Tips
There is a large ledge about 55 ft. above the bottom of the rappel that offers another anchor point just in case your rope does not reach the full length of the almost 300 ft. first rap. Make sure that everyone in your group has a belay device that allows them to add friction while rappelling and that they know how to do so.
Rappel 2
Length: 35 ft
Rappel 3
Length: 30 ft
Rappel 3 Anchor
This rappel is anchored from a boulder. Webbing is slung around it and hangs over the edge of the rappel.
Overview
This third rappel is just down the watercourse from the bottom of the 2nd rappel and has a bit of an awkward entry as per usual in Zion canyons. You will need to use the webbing or and/or some downclimbing skills before you are completely weighted in your harness.
Rappel 4
Length: 100 ft
Rappel 4 Anchor
This rappel is anchored with webbing and two bolted hangers on the right-hand wall looking down canyon.
Overview
Just around the corner from rappel 3 is rappel 4. The drop is right at 100 ft. over two stages. The first stage will drop you about 15 into a pothole. The second stage will drop you the remaining 85 ft. down a beautiful but slippery flute. This rappel marks then end of the rappels for a while. So bag the ropes and walk down canyon for quite a ways. The canyon will open wide soon after this rappel and then slot up eventually another time.
Tips
A 60 meter (~197 ft.) rope is barely enough for both ends to touch the floor of this rappel.
Downclimbs
Length: ft
More anchor information coming soon.
Overview
The majority of downclimbs are encountered between rappels 5 and 6. A couple of the downclimb images featured in this section are encountered later in the canyon. Once the canyon begins to slot up again, you will encounter some rock and log jams. All of the downclimbs are under 20 ft. These jams can be downclimbed usually with minimal effort. If the downclimbs presented seem too difficult, the logs and boulders in the jams can provide solid natural anchor options for belays or rappels.
Rappel 5
Length: 20 ft
Rappel 5 Anchor
There is webbing slung around a log in the watercourse that hangs over the entry point of the rappel. This anchor is subject to change depending on flooding that causes logs to be moved.
Overview
This is a short rappel that might be possible to downclimb depending on the placement of logs in the watercourse.
Rappel 6
Length: 17 ft
Rappel 6 Anchor
This rappel is anchored from a wedged log in directly in the watercourse and is slung with webbing.
Overview
Downclimb over the edge to get weighed on rappel. This is easier than it looks. Rappel down to a pothole that is a semi-keeper. There are plenty of larger rocks in the pothole to push to one side to assist getting out of the semi-keeper if necessary.
Rappel 7
Length: 15 ft
Type of Rappel: Standard
Rappel 8
Length: 15 ft
Type of Rappel: Optional Downclimb
Rappel 8 Anchor
There is webbing slung around a log that is propped up in the watercourse.
Overview
From the top of this downclimb/rappel, you should be able to see a small natural arch at the bottom. Rappel down the smooth wall or downclimb on the right-hand side of the watercourse down what would be a fun slide if water was running down it. After this rappel walk down canyon and downclimb into a pothole. You can use a pack drag technique to lower yourself or use the assistance of another group member to get down. The first person down can spot the others on the downclimb.
Tips
If downclimbing, hug the log and swing out under it to reach the side of the watercourse that is able to be downclimbed.
Rappel 9
Length: 30 ft
Rappel 10
Length: 40 ft
Coordinates: 37.314393,-112.905837
Rappel 10 Anchor
Another sturdy cairn anchor with webbing is in place at the top of this rappel.
Overview
On this final rappel right at the junction with Orderville, rappel down the watercourse about 40 ft. to the canyon floor.
Tips
You can bypass this rappel by scrambling over the left-hand side of the watercourse. It is a bit exposed, but would be considered lower 5th class. There is a good crack to help with the downclimb.

Downclimbs
The majority of downclimbs are encountered between rappels 5 and 6. A couple of the downclimb images featured in this section are encountered later in the canyon. Once the canyon begins to slot up again, you will encounter some rock and log jams. All of the downclimbs are under 20 ft. These jams can be downclimbed usually with minimal effort. If the downclimbs presented seem too difficult, the logs and boulders in the jams can provide solid natural anchor options for belays or rappels.

Downclimb over the edge to get weighed on rappel. This is easier than it looks. Rappel down to a pothole that is a semi-keeper. There are plenty of larger rocks in the pothole to push to one side to assist getting out of the semi-keeper if necessary.
Rappel 7
This is just another short rappel off of a natural anchor that is very simple.
Rappel 8
From the top of this downclimb/rappel, you should be able to see a small natural arch at the bottom. Rappel down the smooth wall or downclimb on the right-hand side of the watercourse down what would be a fun slide if water was running down it. After this rappel walk down canyon and downclimb into a pothole. You can use a pack drag technique to lower yourself or use the assistance of another group member to get down. The first person down can spot the others on the downclimb.

Downclimbs
The majority of downclimbs are encountered between rappels 5 and 6. A couple of the downclimb images featured in this section are encountered later in the canyon. Once the canyon begins to slot up again, you will encounter some rock and log jams. All of the downclimbs are under 20 ft. These jams can be downclimbed usually with minimal effort. If the downclimbs presented seem too difficult, the logs and boulders in the jams can provide solid natural anchor options for belays or rappels.

Just around the corner from rappel 3 is rappel 4. The drop is right at 100 ft. over two stages. The first stage will drop you about 15 into a pothole. The second stage will drop you the remaining 85 ft. down a beautiful but slippery flute. This rappel marks then end of the rappels for a while. So bag the ropes and walk down canyon for quite a ways. The canyon will open wide soon after this rappel and then slot up eventually another time.

Downclimbs
The majority of downclimbs are encountered between rappels 5 and 6. A couple of the downclimb images featured in this section are encountered later in the canyon. Once the canyon begins to slot up again, you will encounter some rock and log jams. All of the downclimbs are under 20 ft. These jams can be downclimbed usually with minimal effort. If the downclimbs presented seem too difficult, the logs and boulders in the jams can provide solid natural anchor options for belays or rappels.

Rappel 6
Downclimb over the edge to get weighed on rappel. This is easier than it looks. Rappel down to a pothole that is a semi-keeper. There are plenty of larger rocks in the pothole to push to one side to assist getting out of the semi-keeper if necessary.
Rappel 7
This is just another short rappel off of a natural anchor that is very simple.
Rappel 8
From the top of this downclimb/rappel, you should be able to see a small natural arch at the bottom. Rappel down the smooth wall or downclimb on the right-hand side of the watercourse down what would be a fun slide if water was running down it. After this rappel walk down canyon and downclimb into a pothole. You can use a pack drag technique to lower yourself or use the assistance of another group member to get down. The first person down can spot the others on the downclimb.

Rappel 4
Just around the corner from rappel 3 is rappel 4. The drop is right at 100 ft. over two stages. The first stage will drop you about 15 into a pothole. The second stage will drop you the remaining 85 ft. down a beautiful but slippery flute. This rappel marks then end of the rappels for a while. So bag the ropes and walk down canyon for quite a ways. The canyon will open wide soon after this rappel and then slot up eventually another time.

Downclimbs
The majority of downclimbs are encountered between rappels 5 and 6. A couple of the downclimb images featured in this section are encountered later in the canyon. Once the canyon begins to slot up again, you will encounter some rock and log jams. All of the downclimbs are under 20 ft. These jams can be downclimbed usually with minimal effort. If the downclimbs presented seem too difficult, the logs and boulders in the jams can provide solid natural anchor options for belays or rappels.

Rappel 6
Downclimb over the edge to get weighed on rappel. This is easier than it looks. Rappel down to a pothole that is a semi-keeper. There are plenty of larger rocks in the pothole to push to one side to assist getting out of the semi-keeper if necessary.
Rappel 7
This is just another short rappel off of a natural anchor that is very simple.
Rappel 8
From the top of this downclimb/rappel, you should be able to see a small natural arch at the bottom. Rappel down the smooth wall or downclimb on the right-hand side of the watercourse down what would be a fun slide if water was running down it. After this rappel walk down canyon and downclimb into a pothole. You can use a pack drag technique to lower yourself or use the assistance of another group member to get down. The first person down can spot the others on the downclimb.

Rappel 4
Just around the corner from rappel 3 is rappel 4. The drop is right at 100 ft. over two stages. The first stage will drop you about 15 into a pothole. The second stage will drop you the remaining 85 ft. down a beautiful but slippery flute. This rappel marks then end of the rappels for a while. So bag the ropes and walk down canyon for quite a ways. The canyon will open wide soon after this rappel and then slot up eventually another time.
