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 feature is visible from the highway, back high and right up on the rim of the canyon. Awesome little tower with three routes of varying difficulty. One on the north side and two are on the south. Base camp is on the south side and is sunny, warm, and spacious like the beach. The summit has a stellar view. No crowds here, please close the gate behind you.

Getting There

Drive east off the highway as far as is possible. Continue on foot up the road until about even with the talus toe that is down and right of the tower. Cut across to it and head up zig-zagging up brushy ledges. Once on top, head left (east) to the tower. 20 to 30 minute approach.
