Description 

Nose Rock is the farthest left (west) developed cliff at The Pit. Most of the routes are fairly short, but the rock is high quality with lots of great edges. This area includes Scully's Route (5.14a?), one of the hardest lines in the canyon. A great escape when the main areas get a little too crowded.


Getting There 

Follow the main trail all the way left, passing underneath a huge roof with a few bolt lines. A little over 20 minutes from the parking lot, 5-10 minutes from Swiss Tower/Mall Wall.
