Description

The Lost Wall is the furthest North climbing area in Upper Devils Canyon. It stands separate from most of the Upper Devils Canyon climbing, so it may be less crowded here. The majority of the climbs are sport with lowering anchors, although there are a few trad climbs. The rock is typical of Queen Creek climbing, with pockets and flakes. Some of the rock at the top of these climbs are quite loose (and quite large!), so helmets are recommended. This area gets morning sun and afternoon shade.

Getting There

From US-60 you'll head towards the Oak Flat campground. Take the first road to your left and follow this road up a hill as it generally heads East. Stay left at the two forks you will run into. Eventually this road will dead end just before US-60. About 500 yards before this dead end, there is a small pullout for a few cars on your right. Park here and walk back towards the campground for a minute while looking on your left for cairns marking a trail. The trail heads to the North side of the climbing area and if you follow the cairns is not too bad to follow. Some limited scrambling without exposure is needed to get to the base of the climbs.
