Wadi Rum’s grandeur in southern Jordan became famous because of the movie "Lawrence of Arabia". Prior to exploration beginning in 1984 to assess its potential for Rock Climbing, the region and its mountains were largely only familiar to the local Bedouin. There are now some 300 routes of all grades on sandstone of variable quality. Original pioneers adopted a policy of using a minimum of fixed gear for protection to preserve the spirit of adventure.
