DescriptionStorm Mountain's Pyschobabble Wall is very steep and has many difficult lines. The climbs mainly range from 5.10 to 5.12, with one 5.7 on the wall. Lots of quality routes in a small area.

Getting to two of the other bolts is also unusually exciting, but the fall would be all air. At least two of the hangers are spinners; be prepared if you are shooting for the flash.
