Description

This is generally the most popular area at the Pie Shop and has the largest concentration of routes with the largest diversity in grades. Many of the routes can be set up for TR, however accessing the top requires a fair bit of effort. Most routes will have an easier route near by which can be lead to access the top anchors of some of the harder routes. A great place to touch some real rock and climb on a sunny mid winter day.

Getting There

Hike up the trail to a large flat boulder, known as "Lunch Rock". Continue along the base of the cliff in either direction.
