Description 

Think it is hot? You have no idea what this place feels like in Summer once you get up onto the climbs. This cliff is a cold-weather destination.

Many very hard lines can be found here along with a bunch of warm ups, prefect for the winter roadtripping hard-body.


Getting There 

Walk east along Beauty from Nuttal, you'll see the lines, they are awesome.
