Description

The Lair is on the far left (west) side of The Maximum. The routes, as the name suggests, climb out of a cave which seems like the perfect lair for a mountain lion. Since there isn't a mountain lion, it just makes for a cool place to hang and also makes for some steep starts coming out the opening moves. This wall is more south facing, so it gets sun mid morning onward.

Getting There

Approach for The Maximum. These are the routes on the far left side, around the blunt arete.
