Description Suggest change

This north facing wall has a couple of easy to moderate star quality face and crack climbs. Good rock. Bring draws and a standard rack, add a few long slings to rig an anchor on top. At times of high water the base is nearly in the lake.

Getting There Suggest change

At the south end of Watson Lake Park is a large pavilion on a hill over looking the lake. Drive up to this and park at the east end of the large parking area. Hike east on a rocky spur and look for the top of the wall, it faces in the direction of the dam and has some long cracks and a roof on the left edge. If you hit the right trail, you will end up on top of the wall. Scramble down to the base or rig an anchor and rap down.
