Location: UT : Saint George : Snow Canyon State Park : Indian Wall : Handful of Crack, Fistful o... (5.7)

Comments: Just combine the two pitches to make one great climb. The crack is really good! Placed a little of everything up to #4 cam. Then skip the anchor and make one really tough 5.9 move over the little roof and then finish with some cool pockets. Two bolts protect the upper half (p2). Chains to rap.

Comments: Fun romp. But look out for a couple of loose chunks mid route!

Comments: Quality climbing with great views. But if Living on the Edge is .10c, then this is not. Still a great outing!

Comments: Bring the rack and do it! Nuts and a #1 or #2 cam will get you up this safely.

Comments: Classic climbing for sure! Go for the top and do all 4 pitches. The first pitch is amazing every time you look at your feet. One of my favorites in Snow.

Comments: What a great climb! Just wish it didn't have that 3rd pitch though. The 2nd and 4th pitches are what you came for and are well worth doing.. I can't wait to come back and climb more in the area. The granite on the butters pitch felt and climbed just like Fergy stone. The FA's have done a wonderful job working this whole area.

Comments: Good fun must-do route. I also stayed slightly right between the first couple bolts.. Which seemed like the natural way. But if you want to get to the third clip, you'll have to bust out onto the crimpy face at some point. I wouldn't of wanted to of blown that third clip either...

Comments: First pitch is good in its own right. A better description of the second pitch would be nice too.

Comments: This is a really good variation to pitch 5, and it feels more direct than the "original" way. Surprisingly, it had some of the same kinds of moves as the "original" way too. Just a bit easier.. Also, that 3rd bolt is right where it needs to be. You just can't see it from the belay.

Comments: Hitting golf balls from the top of desert towers = WEAKSAUCE!
Maybe I'll start bring rocks to the golf course...

Comments: Would be a classic in it's own if the crack gets cleaned up.. Excellent slab moves with good crack climbing thrown in. Didn't find any pins to clip though. Bolts and gear only. Link with DLL and you got a classic for sure!

Comments: I though this was a solid committing climb. Small gear to protect the beginning, a #2.5-#3 definitely protects the moves over the roof. Then some bolts above protect the thin slab. Full value route!

Comments: Worth doing once. I'd even do it again too see if can find a better belay up top. The upper crack is were the real funs at. Couple interesting moves getting over to it from the wide crack as well... Standard rack works well. We hiked off the top.

Comments: Fun little jaunt. Good protection. To keep it real and not sell yourself short, stay off the big ledge on the right and keep to the face on the left. Best way to finish for sure!

Comments: This is one of my favorite new climbs in Fergy. Not sure why I've overlooked it for so long.. I believe the original finish has a tree in the way, but going straight-up is still exciting. Just do it! I placed a #.4 to protect the mantle over the top.

Comments: My thoughts during the Beef of it...Please don't pop, please don't pop! Very exciting climbing. It would be a fergy classic if the Jerky didn't end so quickly. Definitely worth doing though. And if you're not into trad, bring a pad (mondo size). I placed a #2 for the beef and a couple of small manky nuts for the upper section.
