The view...

from the kitchen window, looking east toward Castleton Tower, as the sun sets this evening (click to enlarge.) Lousy, eh?

The spire is composed of a detached remnant of the Wingate Sandstone (Early Jurassic) and is one of the "50 Classic Climbs" in North America (of which I've achieved only 10%.) I've got my climbing kit here and am looking for a partner for the traditional 5.9 historic first ascent route to the top.

    Just another typical sunset photo in Castle Valley. Nice shot! When you find someone to climb Castleton Tower with, let me know, hopefully someone can take some good shots of the action!
