Rock Climbing Horseshoe Canyon Guidebook - $31.99
I recently took my first rock climbing trip to Horseshoe Canyon Ranch in Arkansas. I'm continually amazed at all the amazing outdoor sport climbing the midwest has to offer. Horseshoe Canyon Ranch is a 5 hour drive from St. Louis, but it's well worth the trip!
The start of our second day we headed to the Prophecy Wall on the West Side to climb the Horseshoe Canyon Ranch classic sport climbing route Learning to Fly 5.10c. It’s a beautiful 55ft vertical route with the crux being a spicy over-hanging roof from the final clip to the chains. I pulled out the drone to capture Meg Velius (@meg_v24) climbing this amazing route.
I’m proud to say I also climbed Learning to Fly 5.10c with only 1 take on the roof… on top rope haha.
My Essential Rock Climbing Gear
As always it was amazing watching Ryan climb Spartacus 5.11c at Horseshoe Canyon Ranch. Such a pleasure to be invited along on these outdoor rock climbing trips with him and be able to learn from watching him climb!
