Description Suggest change

The meat and potatoes of Narrow's cragging, the Upper Narrows is the destination for intense and quality climbing. The routes here are some of the most well-traveled and most concentrated. Quality limestone can be had here of all lengths and levels, but a majority of the routes are 11s and 12s. Flex or go home. 

Getting There Suggest change

The Upper Narrows can be found six miles up South Willow Canyon and about one mile past the Lower Narrows climbing. See individual crags for more details.
