DescriptionDark and shady in the morning, this is an interesting wall. This is the steepest and the biggest piece of the Vallecito area. It is host to some superb routes and some choss if you choose to climb in the wrong area. All established routes have been cleaned up due to traffic albeit light. This wall has a cool feel, and the climbing ranges from great sections of finger and hand cracks to edgy face climbing with everything in between. Some gear was found about 100' up this wall that appeared to be from the late '70s to '80s in era. The quartzite is very flaky and each year in the spring, chunks can be pulled off-have fun. Getting ThereEither rappel down Da Kine Line anchors (make sure you have a single 70m), or walk past the slabs and continue along base of cliffs to climbs. Approach takes 30 minutes from Penthouse to hike down, but causes considerable erosion. Consider rapping.
