Arches National Park Ban Report this Post Average: (0 ratings)	Can't Post

So I went to Moab a couple of weeks ago, and fell in love. I am planning to go back in a couple weeks to climb Owl Rock. Is the ban on climbing named arches, or any named feature? Is Owl rock actually a named feature outside of the climbing community?

To clarify, (as of last spring). "Technical" climbing is banned on named *arches* and balanced rock and devil dog spire (during some seasons). There's still plenty of "great" climbing in Arches.
