Description

Climbs around and near the Zumwalt Meadow trail

Getting There

Take Highway 180 almost all the way down to Road's End. The Zumwalt Meadow parking area is about 1 mile from the end of the road. For the 3 climbs listed here, take the main trailhead, cross the bridge and take a left like you are doing the Zumwalt Meadow loop. At the split you can choose to go left onto a boardwalk into Zumwalt Meadow, or go right towards the talus side of the trail. Take the trail right and go along the talus side of the loop until you see a large house-sized boulder on the left next to the trail. There are two bolted routes on the boulder, and one multi-pitch uphill of the talus following a large obvious crack in the buttress. 10 minute approach.
