Little Foxx

Minnesota > Duluth Area > Little Foxx Canyon

Description

A handfull of sweet climbs and potential for some great bouldering in this area! Ten minutes from downtown Duluth lies an area with good exposure, decent quality rock and a feeling of being in a much wilder area. The only downside is the shortness of the climbs. Routes like Skittle Phlegm and Remember the Fallen should go on forever! Stick to the green flagged trail to prevent errosion.

Getting There

Park at the SHT pull off and cross the road. Take the SHT to get to the top of the climbs (1/4 mile) or better yet, follow the green flagged trail to lead or boulder.

[Hide Comment] There is now another entrance with a good trail marked with orange flagging, leading from the newly developed areas of South Little Foxx all the way to Skittle Phlegm. Please stay on the trail to the best of your ability. Much thanks to Richard, Andrew, Chris Harkness, J-Lo, and the Brewhouse (for the most necessary supplies!) for the cleanup job. Jul 17, 2008
