Comments: This is a GREAT climb, if not a bit short. Stay right on the arete if you can, which has some good holds. The face has some places where the holds are quite sparse. The crux is between the 3rd and 4th bolts.
I recommend clipping the first bolt of the face climb to belay the leader as they traverse across the face, out to the arete. You can unclip that bolt once the leader gets to the second bolt on the arete, to minimize rope friction.
There is a great photo spot from just above the belay, w... more >>

Location: UT : Wasatch Range : Ogden Canyon : Hole in the Rock : Layback Crack (5.6) By: jeffozozo When: Nov 5, 2009 | view comment >> |
Comments: The crux is near the bottom where the wall is a bit slippery. You need to use the crack. I didn't figure out how to "layback" on it, just jammed my hands and feet in the crack.
This is also a great route to practice rappelling from. There is a nice ledge at the anchor.

Comments: I did this as an onsite lead, and it was a little sketchy. The last bolt is about 10 feet from the top--there are plenty of good holds but the top ledge is kind of slopey. It looks like you could make a big throw to grab it, but you should make a few moves and work your feet up under you before you go for it.

Comments: I TR'ed this the first time which made it so that I wasn't worried and I could figure out where to put my feet.
It is a pretty fun climb, but it would be a little sketchy to do it as an onsite lead. the crux is in the middle of the climb.

Comments: Today we scrambled over to Utah Wall and rappelled off. More fun than scrambling down. Very scenic, fun route! Can use some big cams if you want. I used a Camalot #6 just for fun. Didn't use any smaller nuts.

Comments: Fun climb, needs some traffic on it to clean it up. A single #4 would make the wide crack on the first pitch comfy but the climbing isn't too hard.
