The Fin ...

Voted 10/10

This is the one "the other guy" called The Fin here on SP ???

Can you (pretty) please give us more information, such as WHAT direction to approach the standard route from, and how many hours it takes the average climber to
climb it and return to the Jordon Road parking area ???

Are there more formations that you have
visited on the east side of Mormon Canyon?
Those are some awesome rocks, man ...

	Voted 10/10	Great climb, which Walt and I did together a couple years back. Short, too. I seem to remember it taking only 2-3 hours car-to-car.

Getting to the base is a scramble at most, and the "ramp" was low 5th class in one spot. Think the whole thing took 4 or 5 hours or so.

	Voted 10/10	Thanks, fellas! If I slip you a '10-spot' beneath the table, would that improve your memory ?? : )) I reckon the average would be 4 hours.

	Hasn't voted	Well, I think so, but that would include getting the gear out, bickering over who's going to lead the first pitch, someone waiting on pitch 2 for half an hour ;), walking the ridge, taking pics, setting up the raps and stuff... all that fooling with gear takes some time.
