"Three peak route today. We ascended the newly completed Dead Horse Gully route. It runs up the entire gully. After several tries and a lot of clearing of overgrowth, we cairned and completed the route earlier this year. From DHP we went down to White Pinnacle and signed the register there. A slight climb back up put us on a ledge that runs west from there. We took that ledge a short distance until we found the slot that runs down to another ledge below. It is very obvious where the slot is. You see a huge flat area a hundred plus feet below you and the slot starts to your left (east) of where you are. To get into the slot looks vey intimidating, but there are a lot of foot and hand holds on the wall. One member of the team entered the slot from the end of the slot...a little more risky in my opinion. Once down the slot and to the flat area we made our way east a slight distance to White Pinnacle Jr. The start of the descent route from here was not one of the best. We went down the very brushy, overgrown WP Jr. gully. It was a fight to get the short distance down to the point where we could hook up with route that has been cleared. Definitely a fun day and route, but my definition o..." — Heartattackbruce • Dec 2, 2023
"Decided to check out the Joey Louis route to his peak, White Pinnacle "Jr". The gully/canyon climb definitely has some fun challenges in it. The canyon had a lot of overgrowth and debris from the big storm. There are some cairns, but where there's not it's pretty intuitive to follow. The final sandstone spine ascent to the peak has some major exposure....and in some places....crabby, soft sandstone. The exit off the peak was easy and with no exposure...directly down into the canyon via a slot. You could also use the slot for an ascent if you decided to continue to the top of the main canyon and not get out onto the sandstone spine...where the red and white sandstone meet. From Jr. we found a crack that took us up to a ledge that I knew went out to White Pinnacle. So, we climbed the crack and made a short traverse out to W. Pinnacle and descended that route. Overall....worth doing because of the challenges to get there. " — Heartattackbruce • Nov 30, 2023
