Description Suggest change

Picasso Wall: Beautiful multi-colored wall that takes your breath away.

Routes are roughly 60 ft tall and provide a range of route difficulty from easy and moderates to more difficult levels (range from 5.5 to 5.12+). Permadraws provided on many of the harder routes which typically start as a 5.9 or easier then increase in difficulty the higher you climb. Typically the climbs are only 5.9 in difficulty until you reach the main roof bulge. Just climb until you need to be lowered without worrying about losing a quick-draw! Its time to train!

Ratings: While easier climbs are given a rating number representing the climb to be no harder than the rating represented, routes rated 5.10 and up are given a specific max crux rating. This should help you plan your visit and navigate your way along the bluff while using Mountain Project.

Please provide feedback using your MP App. Star rating and rate difficulty feedback helps the next visitors use the app.
