Looking Glass Arch Multi-Pitch Climb

About This Adventure

Looking Glass Arch sits high on a sandstone dome south of Moab — a perfect ellipse punched through the rock face, visible from the highway, seemingly out of reach. The multi-pitch route reaches it in two to three pitches of exposed slickrock climbing, with canyon country views opening wider at every anchor and the arch itself visible from the last pitch.

No prior multi-pitch experience is required; your guide manages the rope systems and provides instruction pitch by pitch. All gear provided; the approach across open desert in the early morning is half the experience. 4–6 hours.
