Ancient Art Desert Tower Guided Climb

Overview

Ancient Art offers an exhilarating introduction to desert climbing, set against the stunning backdrop of the Fisher Towers. This guided experience, ideal for climbers seeking their first desert tower, features a mix of mild 5.8 pitches and some 5.10 face climbing that can be avoided if you don't climb 5.10. As you ascend, you'll navigate handcracks and chimneys before encountering the thrilling 25-foot narrow ledge known as the 'plank.' The adventure culminates atop a tiny spire with panoramic views that will leave you feeling on top of the world. Perfect for new climbers wanting to start their multi-pitch climbing adventures. You won't be disappointed with this tower!

Activity itinerary

You’ll climb through chimneys, cracks, and short face sections as you make your way up Ancient Art. The highlight is the famous exposed “sidewalk” leading to the summit spire, followed by the quirky “Diving Board” move. At the very top, you’ll stand on a tiny perch with sweeping views of the Fisher Towers, Colorado River, and La Sal Mountains—an unforgettable desert experience.
