Climbing the Columns

Experienced and novice rock climbers both make use of the Skinner Butte Climbing Columns for practice. Being in the middle of town, the climbing columns are easily accessible, and so are popular. One will often see climbers working out if visiting the columns as I did today.

Nice photo of these basalt columns. Nice that they are so accessible for novice climbers and easily top roped. Vote.
