BETA PHOTO: Nomad Dome


Description 

A nice rock that offers both trad and sport climbs. The quality is decent although somewhat flaky. Routes need to be climbed more often. Routes are in the sun most of the day. There are two 2-bolt rap anchors. One is on the SW corner, and one is on the west face. Two ropes are needed to descend. Routes range from 5.6 to 5.9.


Getting There 

Park at the lot for Uncle Willie's. Walk up the main trail towards the Astro Domes. When you get near the Astro Domes you will see a trail heading east. This trail will take you toward Nomad Dome which is visible to the east. It has a crack that runs from bottom to top. Scrambling leads you to the rock.

Loking south over the ledge with the rap anchors. A 60m rope will get you to a ledge. From there an insecure downclimb will get you to the base. Not recommended for novices.

There are two sets of bolts on top, but the ones to rap off are located more or less atop Willard and face to the south. Make a rap from these bolts south to slabs below with one rope. Two ropes are not necessary.
