Description Suggest change

The Dragon Tower is the visually pleasing green lichen-covered spire encountered on the trail to the main Prison Camp area. Both Dragon's Back (Sport) and Dragon's Arete (Mixed) are worth climbing.

Getting There Suggest change

Follow the dry riverbed bypassing the first steep drop-off using the trail to the right. As you descend back into the riverbed the Dragon Tower will be directly across the wash. The routes start from the north-facing slot.
