Kolob Canyon, Paria Point, Experimental Earth, Previously Unreported. In September, 1998, Jim Bridwell, Ron Olevsky and I climbed Experimental Earth (V 5.10 A3, ten pitches) on the south side of Paria Point. The route follows the continuous crack systems about 100 feet left of Wind, Sand and Stars. Most of the route was aid climbing and all belay stations were fixed, enabling us to rappel the route after summiting.
