Description Suggest change

Climbers on Mount Lemmon are no stranger to pinnacles and towers. This 200ft freestanding pin, only a few yards from the base of the Butterfly Wall, is markedly different in character to its lower elevation brethren. The east face of Trundle Pinnacle is home to the very best pocket routes in Southern Arizona. The area at the base is also a wonderful place to hang out and enjoy the shade, trees, and views. Please keep human impact to a minimum.

Getting There Suggest change

Follow directions to the Butterfly Wall. This is the obvious 200' spire.
