climbing in Rock Canyon


So we got out with the Utah climbing club last weekend. Great climbing on sharp quartzite. Did a couple of easy routes and then tried some hard ones (a 5.10c and a 5.11b super steep route called Simple Simon). Didn't redpoint anything spectacular, but we're going to keep going back to this area since the climbs are so easy to access. We had some equipment confusion with other climbers so I will be taking colored tape and labeling all our equipment to avoid ownership issues in the future (ah the exciting life of a climber). The weather was perfect with temps in the low 60's. Then on Sunday morning we awoke to about 8 inches of new snow so we headed to Sundance to get some runs in. Amazing that it's spring and we can still get fresh powder.

Above are some pics from climbing in Rock Canyon.
