DescriptionThe long slabby wall just left of the Schoolroom goes by two different names. The lower section is called Kermit's Wall, the upper is the Perhaps area. These walls are connected together, and hold many fine routes. Nice cracks split the face making it a good destination. On the Perhaps wall, probably the most often done climb here is The Green Adjective, a 5.9 seam. Also, an aesthetic deep dihedral works its way up and right, the namesake climb of the cliff, Perhaps 5.7. Kermit's Wall has some quality bolted routes as well as some good thin cracks. Getting ThereProbably the easiest approach is to first go up to the Schoolroom area. To get there, park 1.25 miles up the canyon, then follow the trail just downhill from the chain link fence. Take the left fork which heads west, and eventually crosses into a field of boulders. Climb up the boulders to the base of the Schoolroom. Then traverse left and up past here, following the climber's trail which is the descent route for the Schoolroom. This eventually gets to a big formation on the left, across from the gully. Look for a very thin seam cleaving a low angle slab as a landmark (The Green A). To get to the Kermit's Wall, follow the base of the rock downhill.

Featured Route For Kermits Wall and Perhaps Area
 Awewsome route!!! It is located just to the left of where touch up and Gordon's Hangover starts. Some people start in the actual corner of Gordons and others start on the face. I did it starting on the face and thought it is much more classic that way. The Landing is good if you blow before the first bolt and the moves are really cool. After the third bolt is clipped it eases up a lot, although it still can be pumpy(or it least it was for me)...[more] Browse More Classics in UT
