'Tang area

N Carolina > 3. Piedmont Region > Cooks Wall > W Walls

Description

The Tang Area is most easily identified by it's trademark blaze orange 70' sheer face. There are several nice routes here and the spot is very pleasant to just hang out in.

Getting There

Tang is located in the central part of the West Walls on the flattest, most appealing section of the hillside between the DC Cave and The Fin. Walk west past the DC Cave and Tang will be the orange wall on your right.
