Owl Tor Rock Climbing

The sportsman's paradise of the central coast. Steep burly routes on a fairly blank but very overhanging wall. The most purely physical climbing on the West Coast, Owl Tor has about a dozen route from 5.12 to 5.14.

Weather? The area around Santa Maria is subject to some extremes: from freezing to sweltering, the Tor has it all, but expect it to almost always be relatively climbable. In heavy rain years, however, seepage eventually makes its way down the face of the crag, sliming pockets and jugs and creating a generally swampy environment. Still, you can often climb in a full-on downpour and have the smug satisfaction that you are probably the only person on the Central Coast climbing outside on dry rock.

The Tor has some high-quality variations/linkups. Trust me, they're good. Here's a spreadsheet for clarity:
