Hey all,

I've been reading about Everett Ruess (fascinating subject!) and I really want to go into Davis Gulch. Wondering if anyone has done it within the pst year and could direct me to some information on the route in and out. My Google search brought up climb-ut's technical slot.

Thanks a ton!
 
And I'm too lazy to really search and you guys will have the best information!
 
There's a cattle trail that enters on the north side about half way down. If you have Steve Allen's Canyoneering 3 or Ron Adkison's Grand Staircase boook, it is well covered. In fact, I believe it is the route used the exit for the tech route. I'll be visiting there in March and posting a trip report not long after.
 
Awesome! Thanks @Nick. I'm planning on going sometime in March
 
Well, not listening very well since it's been a couple decades since I was there, hehe. But yeah, I don't remember it being that hard to find the cattle trail, we just went across the top on the north side as Nick said and found the route down. Definitely fun to read about Everett then go there.
