In this guide, the choice was made to privilege, among the very great diversity of possible canyons, those with important reminder lengths. These are verticality and its corollaries (hardware, maneuvers, specific hazards) that hold the attention and set the tone described. In other words, these course proposals require good field experience and equipment used. In order to undergo a progression, the problems generally ranging from crescendo with the height, these canyon descents are classified according to the standard lengths - 40 m 50 m 60 m 80 m - of the reminder strings found in the trade. The length of the routes is between 200 and 1300 m, the differences are between 110 and 500 m, the longer reminder made 80 m and the maximum number of reminders on a course is 18! "It is honored to the mountains than to know them in their entirety, browse them in all directions, to know their smaller recesses. But in this register, our discipline is queen, and a new world has been revealed to us: basins , waterfalls, chaos, narrow: that new emotions and sensations have been offered! "
