Details
Climbers Partner with LDS Church on Stewardship of Little Cottonwood Canyon Climbing
June 1st, 2017:The Salt Lake Climbers Alliance (SLCA), the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), and Access Fund announce the signing of an unprecedented lease for 140 acres in Little Cottonwood Canyon (LCC). The parcel, known as the Gate Buttress, is about one mile up LCC canyon and has been popular with generations of climbers because of its world-class granite.
The agreement secures legitimate access to approximately 588 routes and 138 boulder problems at the Gate Buttress for rock climbers, who will be active stewards of the property. The recreational lease is the result of several years of negotiations between LDS Church leaders and the local climbing community.
Access Note: The climbs on the Church Buttress above the vault as well as the Glen boulders that have been traditionally closed will remain closed.
Please help us steward this area and leave no trace.

Description
Near the right side of the Dragon Arch buttress system is a scattered patina west face. There are 6 bolts that lead through progressively better rock. The start seems to use the flake system to the left until you can gain the gritty face. A few more moves leads to an exciting angling finger traverse that begins the great section of this climb. Positive edges, steep clean rock are all that you encounter the remainder of the route. Toss in the mantle onto the jumbo c'head, and you have the ingredients for a great climb. Just if the bottom section would clean up.
