Climbing Tower
The Climbing Tower at Southern Utah University was built in 2007 to add a year-round climbing experience for SUU students, faculty, staff, and the community at large.
The climbing tower is 35-ft. tall with the following features:
- Eight belay bars for top-rope climbing or with quickdraws for lead climbing.
- You must bring your own rope for lead climbing.
- Crack for practicing all those splitter-cracks in Indian Creek.
- Multi-pitch ledge for gearing up for those long days heading up the big walls in Zion National Park or Red Cliffs.
