Description 

South facing great for winter climbing on warmer days with sun. In summer better to start in morning and bring bug spray of course. Great collection of climbs from 5.5 to 5.11+. Most routes on the left and middle are accessible from the top so they can be TR'd. To setup TR's on the right side of wall tie into middle anchors and gently traverse right to the next anchors. Sometimes you can downclimb to the ledge other times you might have to go up and over. But highly recommend you tie in at the anchors so as not to slide off.

If leading, beware of multiple ledges to avoid ankle injuries.

You can climb on Diagonals and Sax walls in the winter when it is 40 degrees or higher on a sunny day no wind. Diagonals faces south and Sax faces west. Sax comes into the sun at 12:30pm. It is a little Dutch Oven sheltered from the wind. Enjoy! almost year round....

Getting There 

Same access as Sax Wall.

03) Ramp Of Death 5.9+ PG13  MN : Robinson Park (Sandstone) : ... : Diagonals Wall

SPORTY!!!!! but very very cool ramp. Stay on the ramp to be pure, don't wus out and go to side ledges and climb up. This use to be a bit runout, but by popular demand I bolt protected the crux. So maybe I should call it "Ramp Of Pain" now. I think this is one of the best 5.9's in the state.This route reminds me a bit of Drilling Experience in Red Wing but a lot longer on the slab....[more]   Browse More Classics in MN
