Pinch Me Wall

California > Northwest Calif… > Land Of The Lost

Description

In the shade after noon. Good for hot days in the summer. A bunch of bolted moderates from 5.6 to mid-5.10.

Getting There

Follow driving directions on main page. Park on a flat where the road switches back right. Head southeast off the ridge on a good trail into a gully/drainage. You'll pass the Sunset Spire immediately on your right, and the Snag Crag on your left lower down. Less than 10 minute hike on a fairly well-defined trail.
