Description
Short bolted sport climbs, conveniently situated in the town of Mammoth Lakes. You can normally access the climbs from late April through November. The cliff faces south, and can get hot in the summer.
The rock is volcanic and quality is generally good, ranging from polished glass to coarse grained with excellent friction.
There are a good selection of climbs in the 5.10 to 5.11 range. Its ease of access makes this a good crag to visit if you are in town.
An obvious crack, Warming Wall Crack (5.8), can be seen in the middle of the face.
