In this site, you can create your own canyon data page. Just send us the canyon information you wish to publish online, by following the instructions at the bottom of the page (if you have a sketch, send it as an attachment and tell us clearly which canyon you are referring to). It will be published very soon after. You can see the final result that you created before sending it, by simply pressing button ‘See page’.
Just fill it the various fields in the page. It’s very easy !. The page code is constructed automatically, all you have to do is send us your information and we upload it to the server. If there are any errors, we correct them, otherwise the data will be published just as you sent it. You can do all the changes that you want before sending it simply by generating the code, to see the result of what it will look like once it's made.
Bear in mind that the site is open to all users who wish to participate and contribute. Our sole interest is to spread information about canyoneering. We can guarantee that we will not use this information for any purpose other than this.
