Parowan Gap

 
[ Sizes: Orig | Large | Med | Small | Thumb ]
Parowan Gap
Climbing development at Parowan Gap started in the mid-90’s. Parowan Gap has 18 published routes and quite a few unnamed routes as of 2007. Roller Rink is a small wall to the far right (not seen from the road) which has four routes that fall into the shade by 4:00 PM during mid summer. At 6000’, this phenomenon makes the Roller Rink somewhat bearable. For whatever reason, the fly population is persistent at this crag, despite being as arid of desert conditions as any other crag in southwest Utah.

""You cannot stay on the summit forever; you have to come down again. So why bother in the first place? Just this: What is above knows what is below, but what is below does not know what is above. One climbs, one sees. One descends, one sees no longer, but one has seen. There is an art of conducting oneself in the lower regions by the memory of what one saw higher up. When one can no longer see, one can at least still know.""   --Rene Daumal
