Description
Bonsai is a very nice featured wall in a remote setting. These routes feature some amazing crisp edges and fun movement. The routes are on the shorter side, but there is a lot in the area to keep you busy. You might be kept busy, but I don't expect this wall, with a 50-60 minute approach, to ever get crowded.
Getting There
Start at the Jackson Park approach just like Devil's Gate. This is about 1 mile north on Jackson Creek Road. Hike steeply uphill until you almost reach Devil's Gate. Look for a faint left spur trending due west. Follow this over a small ridgeline, and continue west until you hit Bonsai Wall. It is about 50-60 minutes depending on your fitness level.
