Quick Details
Climb and Canyoneer at Cable Arch in Moab!
Join us for a Moab adventure tour with roped activities, combining elements of both rock climbing and canyoneering. We’ll start off with a short hike past some prehistoric rock art and do a few moderate scrambles to reach the elegant span of Cable Arch. A short belayed climb up the “cable route,” a perfect introductory climb, takes us to the top of the arch. From this lofty perch, one is afforded amazing views of Amasa Back, the Colorado River Corridor as well the 12,700 ft La Sal Mountains framed by the dramatic fins of the Behind the Rocks area. Next, we’ll do a 130ft free-hanging rappel off a cliff next to the arch (as of 2021 the arch is no longer permitted to be rappelled). The adventure concludes with a descent into a deep slot, adding the element of canyoneering to the experience.
