Description Suggest change

This may be one of the most beautiful cragging venues in Flagstaff. The base is outlined with a perfect collection of boulders, offering views of town, and highly functional staging areas. The harder lines are steep, long, pumpy, and aesthetic. They almost beg you to climb them. The area also offers enough quality moderates to get the muscle fibers firing or for a mellow cool down.
