Description

High up in the canyon, sunny wall with stellar views. Wall goes into shade around 3-4pm in summer. Hosts a surprising amount of good, hard sport climbs, with some mixed and pure trad lines here and there. A great location for spring/fall climbing when the Sun feels nice.

Note: Routes after Hippy Bandana are actually on smaller satellite crags to the south of the the main Skyline South wall.

Getting There

If climbing on the lower half of the face, hike up past lookers right of Ashes of Stone and scramble up the loose "trail" along the base of the wall. If climbing on the upper half, probably easiest to follow the great new Skyline descent trail switchbacks up to the top, cut back left towards the face (near Guestworker), and then work your way downhill along the face from there.
