Description

The Left Wall section of Puriton Creek encompass the upper left section of rock at the main cliffs. There are some large roofs and nice steep, shorter faces up in the area. The routes at this part of the wall all seem to be 5.10 or 5.12 with nothing in the middle. If overhanging faces and powerful moves are what you love than this is an area that will make you smile.

Getting There

From the base of the main Puriton Wall look up and left to find the routes. They can be accessed by scrambling up ledges from the lower left end of the crag or combined with some first pitch routes form the lower wall. The belay area on many of the climbs are protected with a belay bolt to cut down on the exposure.
