Snow Canyon

Switched it up a bit with a little desert climbing. Climbed "Will's Rush", which was the first established route in Snow Canyon. It had kind of an old school feel, and was mellow fun.

Looking up at the slabby second pitch.

The 2nd rap station.

Should have brought the skis?

These photos are so cool. It looks even more intense looking down from the top than it did looking up from the bottom! I am pretty impressed. Glad evertbody made it up and down safe and sound!!

hey Colby...what is that climb rated?

Colby said...

Carly-
If you stay on route- I believe it is rated a mere 5.5 or 5.6?
But if you wander, it gets interesting.
