Description

A largely undeveloped crag on the left side of Hayden Peak west face with enough stacked, loose rock and lichen to deter all but the most jaded choss bolters.

Getting There

Find your way up to the Iron Hayden Wall. A climbers trail exists just to the east of the Highline trail parking lot. Follow this trail until you get to the base of the main wall then traverse along the base heading north until the way is blocked by a short rocky ridge. Descend a short distance and continue traversing the base of a short wall until you are in the Hayden Couloir. Cross the couloir and locate the obvious skyline arete. Scramble up to the base of the arete. Expect a 1 hour and 25 minute approach if you find and stay on the trail.
