"Lovely climb from La Sal Pass. Drive up to the pass was fine, creek crossing was manageable in an AWD Honda CRV. Ducked route up the gully to where a use trail takes off up the face. Smoky skies obscured views to the west, but the Rockies were visible to the east." — edg • Sep 9, 2021

"We stayed in Moab overnight before driving out to the trailhead. The dirt road is excellent. The little stream crossing was fun in my Toyota Corolla - no problems. Just past the sign for Beaver lake, we turned right onto the access road for the trailhead. My car wouldn't go up the initial steep climb so we parked and hiked. The road only has two or three spots where a passenger car can't make it - but a high clearance vehicle would have no problems. We got to the end of the road and started up the trail. The first part is beautiful - meadow on one side of the trail and you're hiking through trees. The trail isn't that steep until it heads up a gully or drainage.

"Hiked with Scott V. as part of break from Indian Creek climbing. Very fun ridge hike with alpine feel (some snow) and great views on a blue sky day. Did the Fang on the way up. Really liked this hike. " — louhibbard • Nov 4, 2012

"Spent the night at La Sal Pass. Climbed up the South Couloir. Summited amid desert squalls, with lightening. Did not stay at the top long in order to prevent getting hit by lightening." — strongbad_reggie • Sep 1, 2012
