Access Issue: Mt. Nebo Wilderness on south side of Santaquin Canyon.
Details
The Mount Nebo Wilderness boundary parallels approximately 100-200 yards south of the Santaquin Canyon road from the mouth of the canyon to Tinney Flat Campground. Wilderness rulesblm.gov/wo/st/en/info/regul… apply within the wilderness area (nothing mechanized or motorized allowed, including power drills).
Description
Two 20-30' steps of near-vertical to vertical ice separated by a shallow snow gully. Gets hit by the sun pretty badly, so conditions vary greatly.
Location
North side of the canyon directly across from Automatic Control Theory. You can see the flow clearly from where the river crosses below the road.
Protection
Screws up to 16cm. No fixed anchors, but some small trees/bushes at the top for a natural anchor. A 60m rope-stretcher, so be careful.
Descent:
Ideally, a double-rope rap from the trees.
However, we descended by hiking up and around an adjacent gully to the west, then doing a somewhat sketchy 20ft downclimb.
