help Resolution Arete FAQ
Where is Resolution Arete actually located?
Resolution Arete is on Mount Wilson in Nevada's Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area. It is not on Mount Charleston, which is a separate mountain area northwest of Las Vegas.
How long and difficult is Resolution Arete?
It is commonly described as a Grade V traditional climb with more than 20 pitches and difficulties around 5.10. The route gains thousands of feet, so the undertaking is much larger than a 510-foot crag route.
Why do climbers link Inti Watana with Resolution Arete?
Inti Watana provides a popular lower approach into the upper sections of Resolution Arete on Mount Wilson. The linkup offers strong climbing while avoiding some of Resolution's lower route-finding difficulties.
Can climbers rappel all of Resolution Arete?
A full retreat becomes increasingly complicated as parties move higher along the long ridge system. Many climbers plan to complete the route and descend Mount Wilson on foot, carrying navigation equipment and enough supplies for a very long day.
