Description Suggest change

The Grape Ape is a little bit off the beaten path. It holds a couple of moderate highball classics, and some other worthwhile climbs. Unlike many of the areas at Rocktown, this one gets a fair bit of sun.

Getting There Suggest change

From the Police Brutality/Asphalt areas, head briefly towards Golden Harvest/Golden Showers. Instead of going down the hill to these climbs, take the trail that branches right and slightly uphill. When this trail hits a wall, go through the corridor on your right. After the corridor, go a little bit further to the next, more open corridor. The Grape Ape boulder will be on your right (a tall boulder with an angled slab beneath).
