Description

A smaller, elevated gorge system. Only a mile long, Jay's Gorge is stacked with rock and the terrain runs gently downhill until the very end where it drops dramatically. The upper portion of Jay's is at 2420ft in elevation, and at its confluence is near 1950ft. A nice selection of shorter cragging on excellent rock (averaging 4 bolts to anchors) and a host of high quality sandstone bouldering.
