Description

Amazing golden granite climbs. All 30m or less and all really fun. Usually sunny all day. Bouldering is top notch.

Getting There

Take Shuteye Pass Trail leading right off the parking lot to the slab saddle. Then head right towards Eagle's Nest. Once the cairns put you on top, head right, over the dome following a foot trail. Eventually, go through a notch and Upper Wall is off to the left.

There is an alternative trail that splits off from Shuteye Pass trail early on that goes right to Eagles Nest, but it is hard to find going up. Easier to find going down with well-marked cairns down mostly slab.
