Description

There are two different climbing areas about a 100 yards apart from each other in an undeveloped area of the green belt. There is a really cool steep cave (Tora Bora) that is about 20 feet deep and there is a cool overhanging wall (Industrial Wall). The rock is sort of sharp and climbing is physical. As the guidebook says, bring tape.

Getting There

Located off of River Place and 2222 in NW Austin in an undeveloped part of the green belt. Take a left on River Place (coming from Austin) and then a right into the parking lot of an office building for a home builder. Enter the woods just behind the building where there is an old wooden fence post. You'll have to bushwack a bit but there is a faint trail to follow a short ways that eventually either trails off to the right slightly or goes down to the left. To get to the Industrial Wall go right for a short ways until you come to a steep cliff. This is the top of the Industrial Wall. To get to the Tora Bora cave go left and scramble your way down to the entrance less than a 100 yards away.
