Description Suggest change

Harder than the rest of the rock in the Grand Staircase, you still will need to sew it up! This is a beautiful area and the colors here are postcard-esque! The first aid moves are disconcerting. Then you run through some good climbing until you reach a vertical off-width/chimney. There is gear and hands in the back of this intimidating 30 foot head tester. The exit is awkward but doable.

Location Suggest change

East of "Promise Rock" and just a hundred feet off the cliff band this tower is easy to find though not easily seen from the road. The Wolf-Dog line is on the northeast side of Dog Gone Tower. Scramble up some loose blocks onto a low col between the tower and a much shorter pile. Then traverse right on a small ledge to a thin crack. Place a lot of small gear and step into aiders. A few moves gets you to a large ledge. The rest of the line goes free.

Protection Suggest change

Passive = Black and pink tricams, small wires and offsets
Active = 00 Met. through .3 BD X 1, BD #1s through #5s X3.
Anchor = 3 bolts with webbing and a quick link
Rope = A single 60 meter will "just" get you to the ground.
