Description Suggest change

Classic scrambling and alpine rock climbing in the Chugach Front Range (FRange). See the O'Malley Peak section in Anchorage & South Central Ice Climbing for winter routes. There are many lines both completed and not completed, on the West Buttress, one can climb moderate and easy 5th class on the climber's right of the buttress or delve into the complex route finding in the center of the buttress. this is a great venue to keep playing in after you've cut your teeth on the goods at the wedge. 

Getting There Suggest change

Class 3-5 routes are typically accessed by climbing the Little O'malley switchbacks and following the trail through the Ballpark.
