Access Issue: This great North County Crag is located on the boundary of partial lots for sale, private property and public land. Details

Due to its location Old Castle Crag is around private lots of land primarily old avocado groves. As of now current land managers have no issues with access to this Crag. Respect land owners keep a low profile and most importantly clean up any trash, you pack out what you pack in. Thanks and Enjoy.

Description

This is the first slab you will hit while approaching the rest of the Slabs. It is 80 feet in height and home to at least 5 existing climbs ranging in difficulties from 5.5 to 5.10. Rock quality is good but not as superior as most other formations in the area. With more climbers visiting theses climbs they will clean up tremendous.
At the base of this formation is also home of The Beer Cave!
