DescriptionThis south facing rock makes a nice outing during the winter and has some nice variety of both grade and type (trad and sport, 5.8-5.12). Note that some of the routes need two ropes. Some nice ones here include "One Green Spot" (5.9+ sport), "Parallel Ventures" (5.10b bolts/small gear), and "Crooked Sky" (5.10d face/gear). Getting TherePark in the lot at milepoint 4.7 and take the steep trail which starts at the north end and follows over the east ridge. Once atop the ridge and just past a fence the trail will continue down to the rock.

I think this is a really fun route, very good positive edges and sustained. The only drawback is it's short. Another 40 feet of the same and it'd get three stars. Well worth doing....[more] Browse More Classics in AZ
