Description 

Bumble Bee Wall is a steep, massive rock formation that is south facing. It has a few sport routes, otherwise it is trad. There are 13 routes on this wall, with some being multi-pitch. Their grades range from a 5.6 traverse to 5.11d. Some climbs can be rappeled, some require a 60 meter rope. Still others need scrambling off.


Getting There 

In Storm Mountain Picnic Area on the NW end beyond the playground is a large triangular cliff. Some of the climbs are approached via a ledge and 4th class scrambling at the base. Others require a hike up to the west and are either behind the pedestal or further up the side.
