Description

This wall is the farthest left area at Blue Sky. The main wall is shaded by trees, so it can be cold if you're up there on a sunny winter day. The climbing on the main wall is on good pockets and edges up vertical/slightly overhanging terrain with small bulges near the top. Home to one of the best warm-ups at Blue Sky, Carp 10c.

Getting There

Once you hit the main trail, keep walking left for approximately 3-5 minutes to reach the crag. You will pass the obvious Iron Horse Wall and continue down across the scree slope. After passing a boulder on your right and stepping over a fallen log, the trail will dump you out at the base of Carp.
