Description

This popular ski line is now home to many bolted routes. Good rock and a choice of sun or shade.

Information comes from Brian Burdo's "Mazama Granite: Cool Cragging in the Cascades" booklet, available at Goat's Beard in Mazama.

If you know the names or history of these routes, please let me know and I will add them.

Getting There

From the hairpin, look up toward South Early Winters Spire. Spire Gully is visible below and a bit left. The approach will be snow covered in early season, otherwise follow the trail uphill. Seven minute approach.
