High Energy Wall

California > Lake Tahoe > Carson Pass Hig… > Woodfords Canyon > Cloudburst Canyon

Description

If you like harder crack climbs, you'll be amped for High Energy Wall. Located on the backside of the Tiers, this wall stays shady till late in the day, making it the perfect place for hot summer days.

Getting There

Park in the dirt lot and hike up the talus to the base of this very obvious, clean wall.

[Hide Comment] There is a good trail all the way up to the cliff. Start up the main trail towards One of These Days and Tiers area, then turn right on the obvious trail heading directly up towards the wall. Jun 21, 2020
