David taking a lap on Rusty Oldtimer

Description 

Small crag near Chatfield with some quality routes in the 5.9 range. Nice and sheltered for winter climbing, shady enough in the summer to climb as well. Mostly southeast/southwest facing.

This is a great crag to hit in the winter, its very footwork intensive climbing where you can place some gear, clip some bolts and keep your head in the game for leading.

cams from a 0/purple metolius to a #3 camalot are useful.

Getting There 

Walk south from the Chatfield climber pullout down the old road without turning on to any trails for about 10 minutes. Eventually the road turns back into the blue trail(still go strait) and you will be on top of the cliff.
