Summit of Castleton Tower, very early accents Circa 1981

the old Kor Ingals rap

To find the North Face rappels: Look north toward the Rectory. You'll find chains nestled between two boulders, east of center on the higher side of the tower (see arrow in photo).

Sacred Ground's incredible crux pitch

View from the top. Snow covered mountains AND red rock canyons. What more can you want?
