Description Suggest change

The Pier is a convenient, shady crag with a good number of routes, though some are a bit short and/or low quality. The climbing is mostly typical Red Rock style, crimpy on slightly overhanging terrain, although there are some cool hueco and crack features which add some character to some of the routes.

The wall faces almost due north and is fully shaded at most times throughout the season, though it catches a bit of sun at the end of a long spring day. The wall can be sheltered from the wind depending on the direction.

The most popular lines like Under the Boardwalk have cleaned up well but are more likely to be occupied, while some of the other lines have not seen much traffic over the years and are still cleaning up.

Getting There Suggest change

Head southeast from the parking lot on the well marked trail near the entrance to the lot. After a quarter of a mile, a trail branches off to the left heading down towards the gulley containing the wall. Take this trail to the slabs at the base. 5-10 minutes.
