Left Side

California > San Bernardino… > Highway 38 Crags > (g) 8000 Foot Crag

Description

This is the taller and more impressive portion of the crag that despite it's broken appearances offers a number of fun climbs on solid and highly featured granite.

Many of the climbs here are fairly new and see little traffic so don't be surprised if they seem a bit dirty.

Getting There

Carefully cross Highway 38, follow a trail down to the crag, and then walk left a short distance to reach this portion of the crag.
