Description Suggest change

Just past the Balcony, this is the final sector of South Clear. Facing a little more East than other areas of South Clear, this steep, roof-capped area is a good place to seek rare shade. However, the limited sunshine also means the Outer Circle tends to stay wet longer than other areas of South Clear.

Most of the routes are located in a small cave that is covered by a roof with deteriorating rock quality. The majority of the routes are between 5.11 and 5.12 with the exception of a 5.7 and a 5.10b.

Getting There Suggest change

Walk about 1 minute past the Balcony area.
