...per Trevor Oman I have been informed by two sources that the land that contains the Cabin Wall and The Island is now public (NOT QUITE YET). Viewing the tract on OnX, it appears The Conservation Fund has purchased or been transferred ownership of the land. Someone more versed in the minutiae of land ownership may want to confirm this, but I wanted to put it out there to get the ball rolling on updating this page.
The Cabin Wall and the Island are closed. In regard to the rest of the areas in Escalante "Continued use of this area relies on good stewardship and a relationship of trust with the landowner."
Respect local residents, cattle and wildlife by following the posted speed limit of 20 mph.
Minimize user impact by staying on established trails and roads.
Park off the road in established pull-offs or parking areas.
Pack out human waste and garbage.
Keep noise to a minimum.
Portions of Escalante Canyon are active ranching areas. Keep pets under leash control at all times.
No fires and no discharge of firearms.
Camp in established areas only. No camping on private property.
Description
This is a fun and varied line. Tackle a small roof using a combination of handholds around a broken finger crack and sandy but decent feet. Depending on your strengths/weaknesses, getting established in the crack above may be the crux. Work up until you can jam a fist and pull up into the wide crack. Use fist jams and offwidth techniques to work up the less than vertical crack to the anchor. This may be the crux if you lack offwidth skills.
I have guessed at the route's difficulty. Please add any info you have about name, grade, and FA.
Location
This ascends the obvious, wide crack a bit right of TH Crack. The top anchor is visible from the ground.
