The Mezzanines is a rock climbing area in the Ogden Ranger District of the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest, about half a mile from the town of East Ridge in northern Utah. The Forest Service manages the land, and the nearest trail is the Bonneville Shoreline Trail, which passes within about half a mile. The climbing here is all trad, with 13 routes spread across a range from 5.6 to 5.11. Penny Wise, Dollar Foolish and Deathblock Dihedral are two of the easier options at 5.7 and 5.6. Zeitghost and Roof Routes are the hardest, at 5.10+ and 5.11. Most of the routes are bolted, so climbers can pick a grade to suit their skill level. Summer is the warmest stretch. Typical averages from a nearby weather station run from highs around 77°F in June to about 87°F in July, with September cooling back to the mid-70s. That station sits roughly 650 feet lower than the climbing area, so temperatures on the rock run cooler. Jumpoff Canyon Trail is about 0.6 miles away, and the Madison Wall climbing area is about a mile off. Paddlers can reach the Ogden River about 1.8 miles away, and Maples Campground is about 4.4 miles away for an overnight stay.
