Land of the Lost

Arkansas > North-Central A… > Horseshoe Canyo… > E Side

Description

Like the name implies, it's a little out there.

The area gets little sun and is damp. It's a nice place to escape the heat in summer, but is usually in need of scrubbing.

The area has some sick climbs that would definitely be must do's if the area was a bit cleaner.

On a good note the geology of this area is among the most unique in the whole canyon, gotta love that.

Getting There

From The Mullet Buttress area take the trail further south, through dense bramble bushes until you see a corridor off to your right. This is where 6 routes(5 sport, 1 traditional) are located. If you continue on around the boulder that creates half the corridor you'll find 2 boulder problems and, starting at the southern arete, 4 more routes(all bolted), though these routes are all under 30 feet
