Tides of Mind is a peculiarly named little tower in the northwest corner of the Valley of the Gods. Requiring only a couple miles of hiking and a single technical pitch, this is a casual half day outing. The climbing is some of the best the the area has to offer and follows a nice crack system in good rock. It can be freed at 11c or easily aided at C1.
