Climbing on the Navajo Nation is ILLEGAL. MORE INFO >>> While some have made clandestine ascents in the area without incident, others climbing on the Navajo Nation have had their gear confiscated or have been fined. It is unclear what the specific consequences would be if confronted by Navajo authorities. It is unclear if one can get permission to climb here from someone with the appropriate authority to legitimize climbing here. Some climbers have talked to locals, especially the grazing-permit holders, and respectfully asked permission, and have had really positive experiences, climbing as well as a cultural experience, in some areas on the Navajo Nation. This area is included for historical purposes mainly, and as a location to put those amazing photos everyone has. This information is a public crowdsourcing effort between the Access Fund, and Mountain Project. You should confirm closures, restrictions, and/or related dates. Keeping climbing areas open and conserving the climbing environment

Hike up into the big bowl on the south side of the main summits (there are three). Climb a bolt ladder up a steep gully then rap into a sort of trough. From here, scramble up to any of the three main summits.
