All climbing is on private land MORE INFO >>> Don't bother the locals, and respect their wishes to keep climbers off crags next to homes. If everyone keeps a low profile, cleans up after themselves, and doesn't camp without permission, then this will continue to be an amazing place to climb This information is a public crowdsourcing effort between the Access Fund, and Mountain Project. You should confirm closures, restrictions, and/or related dates. Keeping climbing areas open and conserving the climbing environment

Description 

This is across the street and located on the long sweeping wall directly across from Lower Portwood Wall. This will be the first bolts encountered walking up along and under the wall. Just to the left of an obvious left facing dihedral. Face climb up and trend left following the bolt protected line following generally pretty good rock.
Hours and hours of cleaning is required for many of these routes in Ophir, but they eventually do clean up (dust and such). But, please enjoy them early on using some caution for rock fall. The Tooele boys have a gem over there.

Location 

North Facing side of the road. Two minutes from the car.

Protection 

QDs for 10 bolts to a two bolt belay. Drilled on lead. Most of the route cleaning was then done afterwards.
