Access Issue: PLACING BOLTS IS ILLEGAL IN THE SUPERSTITION WILDERNESS! Details

In the early '90's the USFS banned all placement of bolts in the Superstition Wilderness. This unfortunately includes replacement of existing bolts. Violating this ban may result in climbing restrictions on this beautiful area. Please think twice and go bolt somewhere else.

Description

The Tower is the large formation directly west, across the saddle from the Hand. It hosts at least one old route.

Getting There

Same approach as for the Hand. When you get to the saddle, follow a faint trail around the left side of the Tower and up to a alcove with a tree at the base.
