Description
Short climbs (18-25 ft high) on a vertical wall.
Comfortable base area.
Top-Roping: To get access to the top of this crag, either scramble up around its right (east) end, or perhaps climb the left-most route up the obvious gully.
warning: The rock on and around this cliff has not been climbed much yet, and much of the rock is still breakable and loose -- so the belayer and other people should stand far away from underneath the climber.
. . . (Lots of vegetation on this rock as of 2016. Be prepared when climbing to navigate around protruding trees and branches, and dealing with holds slippery with grass, lichen, moss, dirt).
