Utah

Climbing / Road-Tripping Trip Reports

table of contents

This page provides links to my trip reports in Utah, which so far have involved a brief climbing trip to Lone Peak Cirque, a week climbing in Zion, a handful of desert towers and random cragging days near Moab, and a few short trips to Indian Creek. I also have a non-climbing trip report for a 2-week photography/exploration road-trip through the amazing landscape and National Parks of Utah. Indian Creek is hands down the awesomest place for crack climbing I've been to, so I will be back for sure.

You can access the trip reports by clicking on the interactive map below or scrolling to the list below that.
