Description 

The Dry Wall is the most popular crag in Echo Canyon. It faces southeast and offers afternoon shade with fun, convenient climbing. Expect a grueling 20 second approach from the road. The wall is very tall and its long gently overhanging nature protects the routes from rain during all but the most intense storms.


Getting There 

2.95 miles up the frontage road (E Echo Canyon Road) from where you turn right onto the frontage road after passing under the freeway. Look for the obvious parking on the south side shoulder of the frontage road.

Pocket Full of Trundles 5.11c/d  UT : Echo Canyon : The Dry Wall
A good long route on semi-solid rock. Steep and sustained, Pocket Full of Trundles starts on small, positive holds and a cool flake. The climbing quickly turns tricky, and surprises you with powerful crux. Find a nice rest around bolt two then continue on up about 15 feet to the route's redpoint crux just below a large positive pocket. Small deceiving holds through a mini bulge wear the weary climber out, keep truckin' to a decent rest or two then finish direct on the steep, pumpy face....[more]   Browse More Classics in UT

Anyone know the name and grade of the link up that starts on Graffiti Patient and ends on Stop That Train?

The blue fixed draws were installed june of 2009... I bought all the sewn webbing at Liberty for around a $1.25 a piece. Please keep them safe by replacing them before too much time passes by. Be safe!

The final bolt on Pocket Full of Trundles is in the process of pulling out of its hole, and is worthless. Could someone who has the skills replace it with a deep .5 inch glue-in? I would do it, but I don't live in Utah anymore.

Hey people, lost my wedding ring at the Dry Wall 2/14/11. Good karma and beer if anyone finds it.

Most of the routes here are fixed. Also, most of the anchors have biners on them for everyone's convenience. Please don't take the biners, they are not there because someone bailed from the anchors!

Does anyone have more info on The Lowe Route 5.10c? It's listed on the inaccurate photo topo, but isn't listed as a route in MP. It's a fun climb and would be cool if we could add it to MP's database.
