Description Suggest change

Below the highway and above the river. There are quite a number of climbs here including many trad climbs, but one route stands out from the others in terms of traffic, and that is Star Chek. Expect crowds on that climb and no parties on anything else.

Getting There Suggest change

There are pullouts half way down the hill and also near the bottom of the hill at an area with billboards. From here, it is possible to scramble down and rap into Star Chek from the top, or to walk from the lower pullout down a bedrock canyon past Gotham City and the Suburb to the river and then along the riverbank on a sketchy trail to the base of Star Chek.
