We did part 3. Approach using the route ‘Fullbach tramo 3’ posted on wikiloc (except we started on the boulder field) in 2h. Route is good to follow, but certainly very exposed most of the time. Luckily no snow anymore.Water level increased quite a lot during the day due to snow/glacier melt (sunny and quite warm), but nothing too serious. Especially the last part is very narrow and will get very difficult with more water.All anchors ok. Hanger of the last C30 is a bit loose, bolt is solid.We found that longer rappels are often a few meters longer than the values on the topo!

Le descriptif de l’accès dans « Swiss Alp Canyon tome 1 » est ok, cependant il n'est pas possible de bifurquer à gauche à l'altitude 1600m. Continuer la sente vers l'est jusqu'au point 1732 puis revenir à à l'ouest sur +/-150m à l’horizontale. Plusieurs tiges en métal en milieu de traversée. Des traces de peinture jaunes ou oranges sont visibles tout du long de l'accès, mais sont parfois très espacées. Il y a des sentes tout le long de l'accès sauf dans les pentes herbeuses de Im Halpi et dans la descente de l’ébouli. Accès 3h45 avec petite recherche à 1732m. Descente de l’intégrale en 6h30 à 4. Petit filet d’eau dans les premières parties puis augmentation soudaine du débit à 15h pour arriver à un « débit correct » (lié au karst?). Très chaud au début (plein soleil) puis froid au fond du canyon. Le soleil n'atteint pas le fond de la vallée de la saison.
The access description in "Swiss Alp Canyon tome 1" is correct, but it is not possible to turn left at altitude 1600m. Follow the trail east to point 1732, then return west for +/-150m horizontally. Several metal rods in the middle of the traverse. Traces of yellow or orange paint are visible all along the access, but are sometimes widely spaced. There are paths all along the access except on the grassy slopes of Im Halpi and on the descent from the scree slope. Access 3h45 with a short search at 1732m. Complete descent in 6h30 with 4 people. Small trickle of water in the first sections, then sudden increase in flow at 3pm to reach a "correct flow" (karst-related?). Very hot at first (full sun), then cold at the bottom of the canyon. The sun doesn't reach the valley floor this season.

Eng, dadurch oft im Strahl abseilend.

Narrow, therefore often rappeling in the beam.
