Angels Landing

Zion's classic tourist climb

Pikes Peak North Face

Handline

A very solid handline exists on the upper portion of the route. The exposure on either side of the ridge is extreme but unfortunately it couldn't be fully appreciated in this pea soup. It did keep the touritsts away though.

Railroad Couloir

View to the Virgin River

On our descent the weather started clearing and we got a glimpse down to the Virgin River far, far below.

Y Couloir

Angels Landing

Much time and money was spent constructing the tourist route up the fin known as Angels Landing. Stairs and switchbacks were blasted into the cliffs.
