Description
Moderate sport crag with 17 climbs from 5.6 to 5.11. Tony Lusk found the crag and developed it with Tony Horness. The rock is good quality in a heavily wooded area with a short approach.
This area is mostly in direct sun from mid-morning onward although the trees at the base provide some nice shade.
The main wall is split up into 3 sections. The first part of the climbing area on the east side has 5 climbs, this area is shadier. The middle section of the wall has two climbs that start vertically and then are low angle which makes it hard for the belayer to see the climber. The west side of the crag has 10 climbs with the first climb at the far left (NW end) on a stand-alone pinnacle.
Getting There
Mt Lemmon highway to MP23 Inspiration Rock south side picnic area. Take the east side drainage .25 mile to the obvious wall on the west side. A faint trail switchbacks steeply down the drainage on the left-hand side (looking down). You'll reach power lines that cross the drainage and the top of the wall. When you first see the powerlines you can immediately cross the drainage and follow the base of the wall down and around or you can wait to cross the drainage until you are directly under the powerlines and across from the lowest point of the wall.
