Thanks, William, that's great information. If what you're calling the water chute is the same thing as what I was calling the cascading pools then it looks as though I can make it down there from Overhang Camp on a day hike and turn around at that point. We'll have to see how the "real overlander to the left, long and rough climbing high; maybe not worth it" looks. We don't plan to hike much through Phantom Canyon with full packs.

I'm spending way too much time trying to figure it all out using Google Earth and Maps, but the shadows hide the interesting bits. The steep walls and shadows are one of the things that make that place so interesting.
