Description

This beautiful orange (ginger) colored wall is host to a dozen high quality climbs all in the 15m range. Most of the routes are vertical to slightly overhanging with a good mix of grades from 5.8-5.11+. A few of the routes require some gear. The cliff faces W to WNW and gets afternoon sun in the warmer months. The rock here is bullet hard and very clean. A 5.10-5.11 climber could probably spend an entire day here.

Getting There

Walk down the Pinnacle Gully. At the base of the gully walk left (climbers right) past the amphitheater of rock. Continue walking past two more rock formations. Pass through the short tunnel of rock and this magnificent orange wall can be seen.

A alternative decent may be established in the future using NRG style ladders with park permission.
