⚠️ Danger!!! ⚠️ ¡¡¡Peligro!!! ⚠️

Recent rockfall due to heavy rainfall has impacted this area and the routes here may be affected. 

Please refrain from climbing here until a thorough evaluation can be done.

More rockfall is guaranteed, so pick another portion of the Quarry and be safe!

Description

This smaller area is located between the (e) Right of the Roof Area on the left and the (h) Rubble Row on the right.

Routes here tend to be on the shorter side (up to 12 bolts) and range in difficulty from 5.9-5.13a with most being 5.11 and up. 

Despite it's close proximity to the popular areas further left this portion of the crag is seldom crowded.

[Hide Comment] "Routes here tend to be on the shorter side (up to 12 bolts)"!? I don't think there's a single route where I live which has 12 bolts on it, regardless of length. I have to come check this place out! Jul 14, 2014
