Description

This is the tall, mostly grey face, with many horizontals that resembles the Trapps. The left end of it starts 7 ft above a large rectangular boulder. There are about 8 distinct lines that mostly follow vertical cracks/grooves and 3 bolted anchors at the top, though these may not be in the spots that get the most traffic. Two are on the left, one ledge system below the top. The other is on top at the right end.

Getting There

To get to the bottom of the wall: follow along the trail at the bottom of the bullwheel faces and the playground. The wall starts where a huge boulder appears on the trail

To get to the top of the wall: scramble up from the left of the bullwheel faces wall and walk to the left. Follow a trail and hike up two small ledges. The approach is around 5 minutes
