Description

Steep, hard limestone climbing at its best. Definitely some of High Cliff's hardest and best climbing.

I'm not sure if any specific routes exist here, but a great place to set a toprope and play around.

Getting There

Follow directions for West Side routes. Upon arriving at the barrier boulders, head north about 5-10 yds. to locate an access gully.

[Hide Comment] I was here a couple days ago... This area has really loose rock- I broke off 3 holds. If you find the good stuff some really nice climbs. However, unfortunately, the middle bulge that looks like awesome climbing is very loose and mainly where I broke the three holds. Mar 15, 2007
