Thanks for sharing this excellent beta information. This is a great resource for folks who don't get into the technical aspects of climbing, YET they still WANT a basic knowledge of names, way-points, reference peaks and routes that climbers can choose from.
I was checking out Mormon Canyon & The Fin the other day.
The south wall of The Fin looked really crazy, like it could
crumble away on a second's notice. The "trails" going up to it
are really steep and hard to follow. (My wife fell twice on the
way back down).
Just wonderin' - have you ever been up to the base of Earth Angel? There's another storm coming in this weekend, but I need
to get up there (next week) and take some more pictures.
Thanks again for the peak names and beta information !!!
Glad you can find TIME to explore these isolated places!
You're welcome dude... and thanks for the vote and for checking it out. I've been to near the base of Earth Angel but never climbed it - if memory serves there was a killer frozen waterfall back there one winter though.

Re: Truly impressive ...I'm not into waterfalls, but sounds like it'd be interesting.
As long as I don't catch Sasquatch kissing Earth Angel, I might get
out in one piece ! : )
