Description

Largest wall with a prominent buttress in the center topped by a ledge. The center of the main wall with the buttress is roughly 60 feet tall. Each end is about 20-25 feet tall. The majority of these routes were put up in the 90s by local climbers. Usually a pretty muddy area. Bring a trash bag to pick up trash left behind here. Practice leave no trace (this includes your orange peels).

Getting There

Can't miss it. Ask around at local climbing gyms (Peak or Triangle) if you're having trouble.
