Do you see the huge rock structure in front of us to our right? That’s Parriott Mesa. The summit stands at over 6000 ft, or 1800 meters, in elevation. It looms over the beginning of castle valley like a guard, stretching more than 1.5 miles long and a 1/3 of a mile wide. This sandstone summit is another magnet for climbers. Parriott Mesa is named after Dale M. Parriott, a settler and rancher here in Moab who died in the 1950s.
