Anyone done Fiftymile Creek? And if you have, do you know anything about the 'Rock Climbers Route' mentioned in Steve Allen's Canyoneering 3? I'm specifically curious about the exit he speaks of, not the re-entry point via the moki steps. He describes the rock climbers route as fifth class with lots of exposure but it sounds like maybe that's just the moki steps portion of it, but I'm not sure. All he says about the actual exit is that it is a 'very steep slab' with (a couple options). Wondering if that exit stays below 5th class and how bad it might be with an overnight pack. Or if anyone knows of any exit on the south (right LDC) side of Fiftymile Creek.
