Description Suggest change

Smaller wall compared to Guntower but with taller climbs. Well protected slab. 5.9-5.11

Getting There Suggest change

A stones throw down the main trail from Guntower Wall. Take the next trail that peels off Left of the main trail to get to it. It peels off as a diagonal Left on a somewhat apparent sandy turnoff just after the path passes over a pipe for water runoff reinforced by a little concrete wall. Through the woods between delineating logs as markers, then left uphill by a boulder stacked with a cairn. Pull yourself up a small boulder to continue uphill then pass through a few more bushes to the crag.

The trail steps up to a 60 meter route with a variety of sections (fun climbing). The leader will have to top belay their second then rap down to mussies from the route just right of it, then rap to the bottom from there. Locate the mussies of the adjacent route before you start.

One 30 meter route down the path to the left and one more visible at the base right of the 60 meter.
