Routes in Castle Valley for selected grade

At the northern end of Parriot Mesa, a slender spire that is detached but barely discernible.

Easiest to hike in from the east having parked in Ida Gulch.

P1) Start on the Eastern side, climbing chockstones in the crack. Continue up to the col between the mesa and spire.

P2) Aid up drilled pitons and bolts to the summit, take some gear too. A number of ASCA bolts replaced some fixed pins in 2010.

Descent) Make 2 raps with 2 x 60m ropes.

The large bowl/amphitheatre immediately north of Ascended Yoga Masters.

Looks like a fair bit of loose scrambling, and a final steep wall to exit the amphitheatre.
