Description 

Tower 1 is the southeast most tower of the three main towers. It is usually the first wall one encounters during the approach to Main Hellgate.

Mugs Stump and friends were the first to really start exploring this area.

A high concentration of good climbing in a small area awaits the climber here. Bring gear to supplement the bolt placements as most of the Tower 1 climbing remains quite trad in character. You'll like it!

Getting There 

As for Main Hellgate. Stick to the trail. This will be the first tower low and east that one encounters. Plan on about a 15 minute approach time. Avoid trespassing on private property.
