Access Issue: RAIN, WET ROCK and RAPTOR CLOSURES: The sandstone around Moab is fragile and is very easily damaged when it is wet. Also please ask and be aware of Raptor Closures in areas such as CAT WALL and RESERVOIR WALL in Indian Creek Details

WET ROCK: Holds rip off and climbs have been and will continue to be permanently damaged due to climbers not respecting this phenomenon. After a heavy storm the rock will remain wet, sometimes for several days. PLEASE DO NOT CLIMB IN MOAB during or after rain.

RAPTOR CLOSURES: please be aware of seasonal raptor closures. They occur annually in the spring.

Description

This is a very unique formation. Definitely worth checking out due to Homer and Marge's symbiotic relationship. (They are two towers that are leaning against each other.)

Getting There

About 2 miles past Kane Creek on your way to Hurrah Pass you will see some towers on the west side of the road. Pull off of the road in any spot where you can more easily climb onto the continuous ledge system that flanks the road. Once you get onto that plateau, you can walk a short distance to Homer and Marge. They are easy to recognize due to the large hole between them. (They are two towers that are leaning against each other, with a gap in between.)
