Thank you very much Kamil.
No free routes up it as far as I know. I have heard opinions that another route called The Flow looks "reasonable" for free climbing (currently it's 5.8 C2 or something). I think it takes a special type of climber to free these Fisher towers - all of the rock is very very sandy and much of surface features disintegrate under slight pressure. It has been done though...The Finger Of Fate route on The Titan has gone free (at some 5.12 I think...it was in the Alpinist) as has Phantom Sprint on Echo Tower (also .12 I think). Maybe others??
Thanks for visiting, cheers!
