I need a Lady Mountain Guide
|
Looking to summit ASAP. Looking for someone familiar with the route who can do the lead climbs in all spots we should use rope. |
|
Which mountain are you attempting to summit? |

I think he’s looking for a guide on lady mountain, not a female mountain guide to sexually harass. |
|
I see now. Lady Mountain is in Zion National Park. There is a 5.10 route that is 7 pitches long and there is a scrambling route with two short sections of 5.7. It’s called the Old Cables Route. Apparently, there once was a trail like route similar to Angel’s Landing with hand rails, chains, etc that was installed by the park and later removed. Is this the route you want to climb? I could be wrong, but I don’t believe there are any legal commercial climbing guides for this area. |

Good photos of the scrambling route: |

Illegal hell! Its just foolish to bother guides who are also bandits! |
|
It gets patrolled pretty regularly this time of year by the NPS fwiw. Just look up the beta. The climbing is no more than 5.4 and the route finding is fairly straightforward. |

I need a Lady mountain guide. Looking to “summit” ASAP. Looking for someone familiar with the “route” who can do the “lead climbs” in all “spots” we should “use” “rope”. |

Specifically: I am looking to summit Lady Mountain, Zion ASAP. I am looking for someone familiar with the "old cables" route who could lead climb and guide me. I am extremely aware that it is prohibited to commercial guide inside Zion. This would be a favor to a friend that I could possibly owe you a "favor to be named later" type situation. Yes, fully aware of the moronic responses that part will illicit..... But seriously, anyone up for this?? |
|
Whats the urgency? Folks might be more inclined to help out with more context given (eg Marriage Proposal? Spreading Ashes? Bucket list item before your turn 50?) kinda reminds me of the guy looking for a guiding favor for his daughter recently. It had a happy outcome with someone volunteering a day to take her multi-pitching, but I couldn’t understand why the original post was so rushed and hard to understand. |

Took some friends up this yesterday. We turned around in the upper chutes before the plateau. There is some snow up there making it very slippery on some of the traverses. |
