Description 

This is the place to go if you are seeking challenging moderates or warm-ups for the exciting upper grades the canyon has to offer. It's also nice because it goes in the shade a little sooner than the rest of the Sunshine Wall, that tends to become a bit toasty after June. There is only one drawback to the EBM wall however, that being poison ivy, which locals like myself just deal with by having a solar shower, soap, and lots of different medicinal ointments back at the car. The area has a bit of historical significance and was named after the gold miner who penciled his name, and a brief, temporal statement on the wall sometime during the days of yore.


Getting There 

Many of us like going to the Sunshine wall because the hike is easy and enjoyable. From the parking lot, hike up the hillside trail and then hang a left once you hit the First Wall. Then, keep walking and walking and walking past the Ex Wall, past the Prow, past the TKO Wall, past the Big, Black Face, past the In-Between-Routes, past the AMC Wall, past the Land of the Shorties, and finally past the Attitude Wall. If you decide these climbs are too hard for you, if you keep on walking, your next destination will be The Bunny Slope, which has perfect beginner and beginning intermediate climbs. Or, if you decide these climbs don't look challenging enough, keep on walking past the Bunny Slope to The Thunderhead, where the stronghold of Strongman climbs resides. However, most climbers looking for long, fun routes will definitely find the long walk to the EBM worth their while.
