The wall


Description 

This is a limestone formation within very close proximity to the albion basin campground. Currently five routes exist and are all bolt protected. Some routes have moderate runouts over easy terrain but are otherwise very well protected. Rap rings exist at the tops of the routes making nice, easy raps back down to the ground.


Getting There 

Go to the southeastern most campsite (campsite 15 if i'm not mistaken). You will see a nice looking limestone pillar off to the east of this campground. You can not miss the limestone pillar, it is the only limestone that looks worth climbing in this area. Helmets are highly recommended in this area as many of the routes are dirty and the rock gets extremely loose and rotten near the top of the formation. When you are standing in the southeastern most campground you will see a narrow trail leading up towards this limestone formation. It starts very near a small runoff gully. Continue following this trail and bear right when in doubt. This will take you up to the base of the limestone over much gentler terrain than the trails that break off to the left of the stream bed.
