Description

Excellent climbing in Jacks Canyon and an excellent option on hot summer days: The combination of a northern orientation and a dense stand of trees make the crag far more comfortable when Casino or Cracker Jack are blazing infernos. While the number of routes is limited, there are is great rock and fun routes at a range of grades.

Approaching the anchors on Yarlsberg

Getting There

Follow the trail down into Jacks Canyon from the camping area, take a left on the well featured trail, pass the main wall (overhanging) on the left, and as you start to bend around the canyon turning west, look for a trail going through some trees out left.

Cross the wash and the "Swiss Cheese" wall will be obvious sitting in an alcove with trees for shade and with slightly taller cliffs for Jacks Canyon - look for the Cheese features up high!!

Easy approach half way to the Cracker Jack Cliffs!!
