Comments: Best to downclimb and lower off the last bolt before the chains or rap off when cleaning the route. It's a little sharp, and there is some rope drag at the top.

Comments: Sandy, Yes! Some choss, Yes! Fun, YES! Great route. In January 2013, two bolts were added, and some cleanup to the rock took place. Should climb better than what you hear from the last comments. Pulling the roof was the crux but way fun.

Comments: I felt like the cracks were great for jamming when a plant was not in your way. The crux was really avoiding the foliage and the large chunks of hollow rock that could fall onto your belayer at any time if pulled on too hard. Other than that, really great area to climb.

Comments: The new guide calls this a V7, but it feels more like a V5.

Comments: Get on this climb. It is super fun. The FA may not have used the knee bar beta, but in my opinion, that is one of the reasons to climb this thing.

Comments: This is a good route but run out and has a large loose flake at the top. Be careful at the last bolt to anchors. It is fun, so if climbing at the grade, get on it.

Comments: Great route and a must if you are in the area. Unlike its neighbors, there are bolts at the top but no rap rings, so you will still need to walk off.

Comments: Not so sure how chossy this is. There are a few loose holds at the start, but they appear to be bomber.

Comments: Go Here! If you are new to DWS or just want to check out a cool area this is the place. Everything about this place is amazing. Cala Barques offers some great camping, but please do you part to pick up after yourself and Leave No Trace. There are way too many fire rings and toilet paper and cooking equipment left behind. It seems people camp here and leave some items for others to use. Please pack out what you pack in, and dig a cat hole for your poop. Fires are prohibited so don't have o... more >>

Comments: Get on this climb! You can find this climb by locating the 3' tufa at the 3rd-4th bolt.
The book by Rockfax states this climb is named Ses tres Maries

Comments: you will need about 6 or so draws. This clib is right of the cave with the obvious tufas. it starts just below a horizontal bush with a small bush. Very chill climb with good holds.

Comments: I am not sure what Chris is talking about when he said he lived on the beach for 2 days. I went there to camp and there are no camping signs clearly stated on the beach. I would recommend camping at Cala Barques. On another note the climbing here is great and you have a lot of routes to choose from. There is not much shade and really no shade on the walls so if its hot out I would climb somewhere else.

Comments: What do you think about using that pinch up right where the roof connects to the lower section? I give it a V6 with that hold.

Comments: I may be mistaken, but isn't this climb just right of Get Over It? I'm not sure why this only got 1/2 stars. The rock is clean, and it has super fun moves, some power, and precision at the start. If you top out straight up and don't grab the last jug on the right, it should go as V6.

Comments: Not sure of the grade. If it is a V8, it's most likely soft. Short but lots of fun!

Comments: The old guide is great and comprehensive. But yes more routes have been added since and am curious to see the layout and text of Bob's book. Hopefully it's better than the Boulder Canyon guide.
As for dogs at the cliff, it is not the dogs fault, it's the owners'. If you have a dog that can't behave at the cliff, then don't bring it. England and Brian, your opinions are welcome; however, dogs at a cliff can be great, and others will agree some even better than screaming children. ... more >>

Comments: Someone left a futon pad at the base of this boulder. As it's fine in most situations to bring such a large landing pad, it is not ok to leave any object behind...even if you are intending to come back the next day. Please claim your pad today, as it will most likely be removed tomorrow.
