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
P1: This is the rightmost of the three bolted lines above the huge boulder. Look for black-painted bolts. 5-ish bolts lead up, trending right, to anchor bolts with rap rings. 10c/d. If doing the second pitch don't go to the anchors, step out left at the 4th bolt and go straight up to the shelf passing two bolts to an amazing ledge. 10b
P2: From the best belay ledge at Lisa Falls head up a really fun and steep crack to steep juggy moves to an anchor. Take a light rack of cams and stoppers. 10b
