Climbers Partner with LDS Church on Stewardship of Little Cottonwood Canyon Climbing
June 1st, 2017:The Salt Lake Climbers Alliance (SLCA), the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), and Access Fund announce the signing of an unprecedented lease for 140 acres in Little Cottonwood Canyon (LCC). The parcel, known as the Gate Buttress, is about one mile up LCC canyon and has been popular with generations of climbers because of its world-class granite.
The agreement secures legitimate access to approximately 588 routes and 138 boulder problems at the Gate Buttress for rock climbers, who will be active stewards of the property. The recreational lease is the result of several years of negotiations between LDS Church leaders and the local climbing community.
Access Note: The climbs on the Church Buttress above the vault as well as the Glen boulders that have been traditionally closed will remain closed.
Please help us steward this area and leave no trace.

Description
Really quite entertaining, and perfect for the hot summer days when this is in the shade for a good portion of the day. Moderate difficulty mixed with decent exposure and odd moves make for a worthwhile outing. The route is about dead-center on Industrial Wall, and is the up-canyon route of the two on either side of the roofs and blocks. The start is directly below the first roof on the granite blocks. Move up into the broken corner that makes up the climb. Ascend the crack and face to the first roof. Moving out right of this roof is one of the more entertaining moves on the climb. Continue up through the next block and roof to the exit move out over a spike of granite. Rap the route.
