This is scratched in the rock at the base of the arch rappels. Does anyone know the story? I'm not sure I believe this is actually from 1963.

Pitch 2. Trail the helmet otherwise it'll get stuck, but don't hang it on a piece and have your follower deal with it and their own.... Photo by Matt Epperson.

Park in the Wash at road bend. Follow well marked cairn trail all the way up to base of features. Note: highlighted route is not exact, but close enough to keep you on track.

On the final, face-climbing pitch to the summit. November 2013.

The first three pitches ascends the dihedral/chimney/crack system (mostly in shadow) on the right side of the face.

Starting P2 (P3 if you did the 5.6/5.7 pitch from the back). Cool setting.

White Rim Access Road - Way scarier than the climb!

In Search Of Suds - view from base (1st 3 pitches visible).

I guuuueeess its worth the 1/2 hour approach ;)

Last janky rap

A rogue arctic wind blowing so hard I swear Monster tower was wiggling

A savage arctic wind was attacking us in this moment on 10/27/19!

For the east approach (1st wash pullout), hike in the wash for 15-20 mins until you see these cairns leading you out of the wash and up the cliffbands.
