| bc44caesar | Kor Ingalls  Date Climbed: Nov 26, 2009 | |
| First desert tower. Pretty awesome. Not really fun climbing, but a fun climb overall! Seemed fairly run out (we clipped 20 pieces on the entire climb), but the climbing was easy. Rapped the North Face with a single 60m. Didn't make it to the ground and had to down climb around 20ft - don't recommend trying this, bring doubles. | |

| What an incredible route. I'm sure the Kor-Ingells is way worth while, but don't overlook this one, especially if there's a crowd. | |

| fun route, but hardly a classic. Sandbagged, unless I took the wrong crack on the 2nd pitch :) | |

| What an incredible setting! The view from the summit is unrivaled. I was worried it would be too hot to climb, but we had great weather...temps in the 90's. We got an early start and were the only people on the route the entire day. This is hard to believe, since it was a Sunday. There were, however, multiple parties inching their way up the North Chimney. The route was in the shade up until we reached the last pitch. | |

| Ice Man Jerry Van | Kors Ingalls,and East Face doulbe 5.9 crack Date Climbed: Jun 8, 1982 | |
| We climbed the classic Kors Ingalls Route then the next day did a route on the east face on a double 5.9 crack. I wanted to climb that rock formation since I was 10 years old seeing a picture of Castle Tower in a Natl. Geographic magazine in 1962. Climbed it 20 years later. | |

| I've been on Castleton a couple of times. The first time was on the North Chimney, a fantastic route. The second time was on Kor Ingalls, which we shared with tons of other parties. Both routes are good. | ||

| Climbed with the wife. No problems except for a torn shoelace before beginning. That desert sandstone eats everything. Beauty of a climb. Good to finally climb it after attending Castle Valley Adventist school way back in the early 80s. Better than burning down the school. | |

| I climbed this with Andy. Warm day, and overdressed. Would not do it again, but maybe the North Chimney route. The last pitch was the most fun. | |

| Why does this route get so much fame? Kinda sucks. Been polished by thousands of people. | |
