Description Suggest change

This is the most impressive wall in Castle Rock. There is a mix of old routes from the competition and new routes. Bring a rack, since the majority of the routes require some gear.

The main attractions are Splitter (5.11), Shop and Compare (5.10a), and Companeros (5.10c).

Getting There Suggest change

Follow the road north out of the parking lot. There are signs leading to the upper comp wall. Don't turn off too soon, or you will need to scramble up slabs to the base. A good trail follows the the base of the cliff.
