Road Not Taken
Three new routes still! Every time I think I have all the towers climbed in SW Utah, I find a few obscure ones to add. Great trip with Casey. Love the location, scenery and blue collar climbing. Makes it a recommendation from me. You will most assuredly have the whole area to yourself, which in 2017, is saying something for Canyonlands. Abbey was so spot on in the 60's. Instead we as a society took that other direction and exploit absolutely everything, particularly climbing and our National Parks and Moab reflects that trend today as much as Boulder. If I did this route over again, would take at least two C4#6's and 5's. I only had one each. As well as maybe hauled up my approach shoes and explored the walk off vs this rap which is work.
