DescriptionThe Pharos is a striking formation that is home to many Arapiles classics. The area is highly concentrated and features lines of 1 to 4 pitches in length on all sides. The backside of the Pharos in particular is steep and is home to great climbs such as the moderate Lamplighter and the more difficult Trojan (5.12a) and Masada (5.12+). Smaller nearby formations (like Death Row Pinnacle) hold other high quality routes. Getting ThereFollow the main trail north from camp and cut off towards the obvious huge knob of rock.
