Here I'm leading the incredible pitch 1 on Castleon Tower, North Chimney Route 5.8+/9-. ***. The pitch is 130 feet and sooooooooo awesome. easy gear, good jamming, and frequent rests. Incredible views.

Here I'm looking down at Tristan from about half way up pitch 1 on North Chimney, Castleton Tower. The pitch is 130 feet.

Tristan Seconding P1 Castleton Tower, Castle Valley, UT. Often called "Castle Rock." Long fun pitch. Good rests, easy pro, and lots of jamming!

Tristan starting up pitch 2 of North Chimney on Castleton Tower. Crux is about 20ft above him in the off width. Easily protected by a 4.5 camalot and a very very old bolt.

Bill Leading the last pitch of the North Chimney on Castleton Tower. You can see how windy it was by the way the rope is arching up from me to Bill's first placement.
