North America, United States, Utah, Little Cottonwood Canyon, Cheetah

Publication Year: 1982.

Cheetah, Little Cottonwood Canyon. In July, my brother Robert and I established an excellent route left of Tarzan in the Gate Buttress area. Beginning on Tarzan Ledge, the first two pitches climb the challenging face above with bolt protection. The third and fourth pitches take on in sequence a double series of roofs and faces. Bolts protect exposed climbing on the third pitch. The fourth ascends a steep headwall just right of the large overhang to easier face-climbing above. The route is difficult and continuous with the crux moves on the first pitch. NCCS II, F11.
