Description

There are a number of named sections along the Foster Falls trail; some are based on a noticeable geographic boundary, but many are arbitrary. The four routes listed here are not part of any named section.

The sections listed below run from right to left as you face the cliff, starting from where the trail ascends to the cliff from the suspension bridge at the base of the falls:

White Wall
So What Area
Crime Buttress
Right Bunker
Left Bunker
The Dihedrals
Jimmywood
Gutbuster Area
Sanford Wall
Rocket Slab
Rehab Slab
Snatch Wall
Red Light District
Zone 3 (aka Dog Boy Village)

Getting There

From the parking lot, follow the lower climbers trail below the falls; cross the creek and continue to the White Wall area. Or follow the upper trail above the falls (Fiery Gizzard Trail), then use one of two access trails on the left to get down to the cliff base.
