Mrs. Butterworth Tower, Eagle Crags. Zion National Park, Utah.

Posted by climbingtrash on 4/20/2007 on climbingtrash's blog
Mrs. Butterworth Tower. It gets its name because it looks like a bottle of Mrs. Butterworth's syrup.
Me coming up to the top of the route.
White Gas Willy on the top of Mrs. Butterworth.
Me on top with the West Temple of Zion in the back ground.
Took a spill on the decent back to the trail and landed in some cactus...OUCH!

I took the day off wednesday because "White Gas" Willy was in town, and we climbed the Mrs. Butterworth tower. The route up the tower is a pretty fun 5.9, but it's still a loose, dirty, desert choss pile. The hike in took us about an hour and a half, and wasn't too bad, except for the steep trudge up to the base of the cliff. The Eagle Crags are typically windy, but there was a storm moving in, so the wind was especially bad that day. I think we lucked out though, because the winds really picked up on our hike out.
