Access Issue: Get permission to access from the top or walk around Details

Getting to the Underworld is best if you get permission from Finton, the old rancher that owns the top way in (the fastest, and which avoids a 45 minute approach).

Description

Todd Goss and a few friends found this place back in the nineties and put a few stellar routes up. Much to my liking they left a lot still to be done. Due to the short season and long approach if you have to walk from the bottom, not much action has gone on here for a long time. Last year James Huntsman and I put in some stellar lines. This is a winter area with a lot of potential. Once Todd Perkins gets psyched there I'm sure most of the awesome lines will get done. Its in the sun most of the day. Think Paradise Forks!! Lots can be done here in the harder grades, but not much to do under 5.10

Getting There

From the south you'll need a high clearance Vehicle with a long easy hike in
From the North you'll need to ask to cross private property with a short hike and rap in

Sun & Shade

Sun Angles Details:

Routes Mostly Face: South

Sunny Roughly 9am to 3pm during high season

6am

8pm

Details: Sunny pretty much all day. The nature of the columnar basalt tends to shade corners dependent on their aspect. So you may have some shade to climb in, but not much. The left side of the crag goes into the shade before the right side.
