Upper Patina Wall Rock Climbing

Take the climber's path across the street from the AT parking. You'll walk through flat, open forest. After about 5 min (or less) there will be a rock step, and shortly thereafter the trail will split. (Little Crack Land and Lost River Crag are "straight ahead".)

Turn right for Bull Pen and Lower & Upper Patina Walls (and all other minor Lost River Crags.) You'll reach the very obvious slab of the Bull Pen in a few minutes. Continue up and right, steeply at times, to the base of Lower Patina Wall.

As of sept 24 2020  there  is no fixed  rope, the trail has been relocated  slightly *,   its  steep  but doesn't  need a rope at this point in time. Things look very different,   you go  almost to the last climbs on the  right, ant phobia  and nuttin but nuttin  and then cut back left.  To reach nuttin you have to scramble  up onto the ledge.

* The old path climbed up more closely to the right side of Lower Patina, sometimes using a fixed rope for safety/assist.
