Description Suggest change

Scramble up the backside away from the road. It's pretty fun. From the base of the tower, climb up 25 feet of rubble-filled handcrack to the saddle between the south most two of the towers. From here, you might as well tag the outside tower - summit and return to the notch (an easy scramble, no gear, no anchor). From the notch, make a long step across into some committing and unprotectable face moves. It's over quickly.

Descent: I don't remember what the anchor is, but it is sketchy. 1x 70m rope does it easily.

Location Suggest change

This is just behind Devil's Kitchen a few hundred yards up No Thoroughfare canyon and is easily seen from the road. Spot three tall, thin towers that look like the Cerro Torre massif if they were transplanted to the Monument and comprised of low grade sandstone.

Protection Suggest change

A standard desert rack-.
