No, you do have to use that crossing, otherwise you would have to find a way across the rather steep and deep canyon below you. That's why the climbers have put the crossing there. You would have to do a very long route to bypass or cross the canyon somewhere else. it does not show up just how deep that canyon is. Poor Daves camera was stuffed when we shot all that and could not handle extreme bright scenes, just like when I wa at the cache.

Hobnail canyon was about 25m below, you could abseil into it but it would have been very scrubby on the way down. You would then have had to swim across the canyon and find some way of freeclimbing back up, probably not possible as the walls of most canyons are sheer.
I could show you a photo of north Bowens canyon, nearby which I've done but I don't know how to upload the image on to the forum.
