Description Suggest change

This is the short (70-80 foot)yellow/orange wall directly above the upper parking area("High Camp")for Bat Cave. It faces west and gets morning shade. The most unique features are several short 20 foot tall tufas that give the cliff it's namesake. This wall will make for good warm-ups during warmer temps or fun cool-downs during the winter afternoons. The climbs will be from 50 to 80 feet and range in difficultly from 5.9 to 5.12 or harder

Getting There Suggest change

Park at the "T" 1.9 miles from the start of the 4x4 road. Walk or drive 0.1 miles further east to the "High Camp". The main trail starts from the north end of the high camp. Walk north a few hundred feet along the main approach trail. Then follow the right branch trail that climbs up steps on the hillside and continues on a rising traverse to The Tufa Wall.
