Shot this at Turtle Rock climbing area near St. George. It was snowing in Salt Lake City, but down here it was warm and sunny. The cottonwoods hadn't even lost their leaves yet and it was mid November. The climb up the prominent prow on the right is a classic 5.11b/12a called Banana Dance. We all put in a lot of time hanging on it and having fun. |
