The Marching Men Details
The Marching Men, located in the Klondike Bluffs region of Arches National Park, are a group of seven towering formations that attract technical climbers. Unlike most of Arches, which is too soft for climbing, these structures offer a more stable challenge. Climbers interested in tackling the Marching Men need to obtain permits, which can be applied for online or at the Visitor Center. It's important to remember that cell service is unreliable in national parks, so climbers should be prepared for self-rescue.
