When we hiked down Sheep Creek last fall we went only as far as the confluence with Willis Creek. This time, the girls wanted to go all the way to Bull Valley Draw. I wasn't sure we could make it because the round trip would require at least 12 miles of walking, but it was worth a try. In the event, the girls turned around after about four and a quarter or four and a half miles (for a nine mile round trip), while I went down about a mile further on my own. The clock was really the only limiting factor: We had to be out of the canyon by 3:30pm. Otherwise, the walking was fairly easy—the girls did great—and we probably could have made it to Bull Valley (and back) if we'd had another couple of hours. The only difficulty was all the ice in the upper "narrows," and even that was pretty good going once we got the hang of it: It is strong enough to take your weight so just shuffle along as fast as you can.
