This a photo of myself taken at the top of the second pitch of Cat in the Hat (5.6+) on Mescalito Tower at Red Rock Canyon outside of Las Vegas. Photo by George Sideras.

Two days after sending Cat in the Hat (5.6+) at Red Rock Canyon I spied two unknown climbers finishing the same route. If you locate the two smudges in the upper right corner along the ridge line, you'll have a sense of the scale of Mescalito Tower. The photo was taken about 2:30 p.m. on Febrary 24, 2003 from the approach to Brass Wall. Note: This picture is of the east face of Mescalito Tower, but is linked to the routes database with south face start of Cat in the Hat.
