Description

The Headwall is the steep, impressive face that looms over the large ledge above the Original Overhangs.

Getting There

Climb one of the Original Overhang routes to gain the ledge below the Headwall. You can climb Land of New Beginnings and traverse up and right. Or, you can climb Slabtastic for a more multi-pitch outing. Or, climb routes such as Brothers in Drilling, and then scramble above the anchor to reach the ledge.
