Comments: Craig Hughes and I (John Evans) climbed this on April 28th, 2012, and found the register unsigned by any other parties other that the first ascensionists. Guess we were the second ascent? Fun route, that is generally low angle all. A bit of fun route finding getting started and part way up. Between hard choices and easier ones, we kept it at 5.6 or easier.

Then while figuring out what to do for the afternoon, Paul Ross and his wife walked up!

Thanks for all the great routes in the Swell, ... more >>

Comments: I did finally hear from La Posada. Apparently, when I was trying to contact them, they had just finished up a very busy, week long holiday in Mexico, and were taking a break to catch their breath.

All is fine, and we were able to make reservations for Thanksgiving week at La Posada.

Comments: This is a fun route to a very cool little summit. First pitch is pretty spicy in one spot. The rest goes very smoothly. As of 5/14/2011, some of the anchors could use fresh webbing.

Comments: Does anybody have up-to-date contact info for Posada's? (such as a phone number) I've been trying to reach them via both phone and email in order to reserve a room for Thanksgiving week, but had no luck getting a return e-mail.

Is everything okay with them? Any info would be appreciated.

Comments: This is such a classic route. My wife and I's most climbed route in the Wasatch. Quiet, clean, multipitch, with fun variations on the top two pitches. Recently, a storm washed the rack-up boulder at the base into the scrub oak. Must have been A LOT of water coming down that corner!
