I’ve got one open day in Jackson this week- what should I climb? Im thinking multipitch trad with good views, 5.9 or easier.
I’ve got a very minor foot injury that will slow me down on the descents so I’m not sure if Ive got the grand in me. Anything a little smaller on approach/descent I’m game for though.

What would you climb?

Open book is quite fun.

Grand complete Exum for a big day, Irene's Arete for a full day, Teewinot for an unforgettable day, Guide's Wall for a nice day.

given your criteria, irenes.  unless you want a shorter approach, then guides wall.

The south side routes on Symmetry would work grade wise, not so sure of the approach/descent with a questionable foot. Another option would be The Snaz or other Death Canyon options--the approaches are pretty reasonable by Teton standards and very doable as a day trip, also lower altitude so less potential acclimatization issues, especially coming from Denver.

Climbed this yesterday because of your comment. Literally one of the best days I’ve had climbing in a while. Thanks for the suggestion!
