Private Property now at the entrance to Bells Canyon. MORE INFO >>>
A well known and marked trailhead has been established starting from Wasatch Blvd. The trail adds some time to the approach, but is fenced off from passing through any private property. Stick to the trail.
Dirty chimney and offwidth. This is the obvious corner system that goes under the large roof on the left side. If you like the great chockstone on Crescent buttress this might be the route for you. Still, not a 'bad' route if you know what you're getting into.

Four pitches of chimneys and offwidths, what's not to like? Probably not worth a trip to Bells, but a worthwhile outing if in the area.

Great route, especially for the grade. Worthy of a trip into Bells by itself, IMHO.

I agree with Brian... It's worth the trip by itself... Just make sure you tail your pack. Or better yet, don't take a pack at all. The final pitch--coming out the roof has sweet exposure and moves!
Did this route a few years ago and despite the offwidth nature of the route I had a great time. Excellent positions and exposure on the final pitch. I dropped my helmet at the top and watched it roll into the abyss so if you find a red Edelrid consider it a gift. I also thought this climb was a great experience- get on it!
