The Red Sentinel, as named by Jeff Lowe in the 1972 AAJ is the northern most sub peak of the main Sentinel. It’s massive north face is one of the biggest in Zion. At least 5 routes ascend its 2000’ face. Its location is one of the most spectacular in Zion…The Red Sentinel sits directly across from Abraham, in the Court of the Patriarchs.
Getting There
Hike up the Court of the Patriarchs, cross the stream bed and hike up the base of the wall. Takes about 1 hour.
Thanks for this photo! It is making my day. Klaus used to call the Court "The Court of the Patriots" hahaha. We tried Red Dawn a bunch of years ago, got half way up the sucker before fear and stomach flue shut us down. The approach pitches were wild! Klaus' route looks very amazingly thin. This wall has stuffed me twice now arghhhh.
