Description

Barely any climbers climb here. Very nice to climb in the mornings or late in the afternoon. The belayer will always be in the shade but the upper half of the taller lines are all hit heavily by the sun. Great quality lines, just make sure to get there early. The only time you can avoid the sun exposure is in June and July when the sun is in the northern half of the sky and this south-facing wall remains shaded, especially in the morning.

There is a beehive near the top of the route To Bee or Not to Bee. Decide accordingly which routes to climb or not.

Getting There

Walk past the 420 Wall (Urticaria West) sector and follow the trail uphill and eventually it will take a turn downhill. Take a left and you'll see in between the walls a slab of rock that creates a small roof. You are here.

[Hide Comment] There's still an active beehive in the black hueco near the top of To Bee Or Not To Bee. I didn't see any bees on Joe Climber, Sángano, or Apifobia today, though. Jan 2, 2020

[Hide Comment] Some good development going on in Lost World. LuisMi put 4 new routes spanning from 5.6 to 11c. Traffic will help clean them up and increase the quality! Sep 27, 2020
