No new route development is allowed until further notice. On July 19, 2019, the US Forest Service issued a notice that it would no longer allow the installation of new bolts or the creation of new climbing routes after manufactured routes were established, then subsequently removed/altered by climbers. In addition, the bolts/fixed anchors on an estimated 50 climbs at Ten Sleep have been affected in some manner that may or may not make them unsafe to climb. The list of altered routes can be found in a drop down on the main, "Ten Sleep Canyon" homepage. The US Forest Service, Powder River Ranger District, is actively working with the local LCO, the Bighorn Climbers' Coalition and Access Fund to develop a sustainable framework for route standards and a Climbing Management Plan for the canyon's future.
Description
Make your way up one super fun move at a time. Don't expect to get up it without using real rock climbing technique. The holds are hard to find on the onsight, as this route is pretty new and does not have any chalk beta, however, every hold is excellent through out the entire route once you find them. Some prefer to climb up the arete towards the top, others prefer staying on the face using pockets and crimps. Give it a try! definitely one to climb in the area if you like vertical technical climbing. Bonus: on a hot day, this route is actually next to an air conditioning crack that drops the temperature easily by 30 degrees. Belayers, bring your jackets!
