Lost Horse Area is an area which is often visited because it's the area that everyone sees as one drives into the Park from the West Entrance. Many of these climbs are close to a road, and quite popular and well traveled. Lost Horse Area also has some remote climbs, well off the beaten path. It is an area which has been heavily explored, but don't kid yourself; there's still lots of unexplored places, hidden canyons, unclimbed routes, and diamonds in the rough. Enjoy, be safe, climb the classics, and even take time to go off the beaten path; You will be greatly rewarded for your efforts. Many of these climbs need supplemental gear for placements or anchors. It would be foolish to climb with only a rock of quick draws. Gordo's Picks (Some suggestions of quality routes which aren't too hard to find and very worth doing) |
