Devil's Tower.


Welcome 

Whether you're looking for rock, ice, alpine or all of it you'll find it in Wyoming. Wyoming is new to MountainProject so come back and visit often as the area grows. If your favorite area is missing how about adding it?

Devil's Tower
Classic crack climbs including the Durrance route which is one of the 50 classic climbs in North America. A 4-6 pitch route that tops out at the summit. A great introduction to climbing at the tower, but start up early to avoid crowds and afternoon thunderstorms particularly during spring and summer. Fall is the most settled time of year. Once you have tagged the summit you can pick the first couple of pitches on a route to get the best bang for your buck.

Grand Teton National Park
Some of the best alpine climbing in the country together with good cragging and multipitch climbing such as in Cascade Canyon. The Tetons are the only mountain range that reminds me of the mountains back home in New Zealand.

South Fork, Cody
100m-plus ice climbing with an alpine feel.

Vedauwoo
If you can climb wide cracks, then Vedauwoo is Fat crack heaven. For the rest of us it's a place to be humble! The Nautilus is probably the standout area with a great variety of routes. Don't be swayed by all the wide-crack talk; Vedauwoo also has lots of "normal" cracks as well. Tape is pretty essential here, so stock up before a visit.

Sink's Canyon
The most popular sport climbing area in Wyoming. Great limestone pocket pulling!

Steep!

Houses of the Holy 5.10 V0  WY : Vedauwoo : ... : Aspen Grove Boulders
This is the obvious route that you see directly from the trail. Do a sit down start on perfect hand jams up the overhanging crack. Turn the lip where the jams turn to fists.Superior stone, not crystally at all, just fun!Will likely seem sandbaggy, especially for those less versed in crack climbing, but there is no way this is harder than Cupcake. Way safer too....[more]   Browse More Classics in WY
