Garrett, James

Having climbed in more than 70 countries throughout the world, JAMES GARRETT cherishes most the climbing he finds in Utah's West Desert. Since his first climbs here in the 1980s, this unique region has remained the focal point for his rock climbing and route development passion. Living in Utah for 30 years has allowed James the opportunity for innumerous brief and extended visits to the many diverse rock and mountain climbs spread about the West Desert. He authored the first climbing guidebook to this area, Ibex And Selected Climbs Of Utah's West Desert (2001).
