Description 

This traditional section of Consumes River Gorge is a shorterversion of the larger Gutenberger wall accross the way.This area features cracks and face climbs from 20 - 50 feet inlength that are almost all traditional routes, with some toughertop rope options available as well. Difficulty ranges from 5.1 -5.12, depending on what you're looking for. You will also findan abundance of chimneys on Bucks Bar Dome, which are all quite fun.

This is a great place to be in the afternoon when the areas movein to the shade.

All routes can be lowered off or walked off, depending on yourpreference.


Getting There 

From the path directions for the area, this is the first rock that you come to down the path. As you head down the path you will come across the un-indentifiable top of the dome. You canwalk to the edge here where you will find top anchors and rappel, or you can walk around the far side (about 100 yards) and walk down the path. As the path heads down to the stream in a small gully, you will find the cracks of Buck's Bar Dome to your left.
