WARNING – CANYONING CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS

The canyons described in this book are often long and aquatic in nature. Many are sparsely rigged and almost all are flood prone. Canyoning is a dangerous sport with very real risks and hazards, most of which relate specifically to the sport. Practising it safely requires good judgement based on previous experience and a realistic understanding of your personal skills and limitations. Even those with extensive caving or mountaineering experience should hesitate before attempting certain canyons until they are sure of their canyoning ability.
