Description
The Alcatraz Wall's ample serving of sun enables moderate sport and gear leaders to warmly climb during the winter months. Routes get shorter as one moves right up the hill. The rock is reminiscent of lower mountain crags such as the Ruins.
Getting There
Follow the oftentimes dry riverbed past the Dragon Tower and Guard Tower. When you reach the Cell Blocks bypass the riverbed drop-off by travelling left. Moving up and left past the Mr. Meanor Wall and round the corner to the left.
