Description
Rock Canyon could be American Fork Canyon's less intimidating little brother. The routes are great fun and there's plenty of them for trad and sport climbers both, but they don't have quite that same hair-raising edge. Which isn't to say that this is a simple hike up the rock face. Some of these are as nasty and exciting an overhang, or a really thin crack of a hold as the daring could wish.
