Cannabis Wall

Utah > Wasatch Range > Southern Wasatch > American Fork Canyon
Warning Access Issue: Located in a National Forest Fee Area DetailsDrop down

Description

A cool, shady wall well-suited for AF summer climbing.

Cannabis contains routes mostly 5.11 and harder (up to 5.13), although there is a runout 5.9, a bolted .10d, and a mostly-bolted .10b for which some will want supplemental gear (Three Amigos, Scooby Snack, and Cannabis Crack, respectively).

Getting There

Park at a pullout on the right just before the Membrane pullout. The pullout has a large bush in it, around which you can drive.

See here for a Google Street View photo of the pullout.

Usually there is a tyrolean traverse across the river; if not, and the river is high, the wall is hard to get to.

Cannabis Wall is approached either by finding the tyrolean and crossing. It late summer and fall it is possible to cross safely by wading across the river. This wall is about 50 yards downriver from the Membrane.

[Hide Comment] Tyrolean is currently found inbetween the membrane parking and bush pullout parking mentioned in the description. Either walk west of membrane parking or east of bush parking towards the river and should be obvious if it's there. Walking west of the bush parking looking for the pipe as mentioned here will result in you not finding the crag. Oct 21, 2014

[Hide Comment] Homies,

Left a pair of Shamans at the Cannabis wall today, size 10.5 with an inch long slice in the top of the heel counter on each shoe. If anyone happened to grab them, I'd love to scoop them up from you eventually.

I'm leaving tomorrow for a trip to the New (aw yes), but I'll be back later this month. Hit me up if you have them, thanks!
