Description
A high quality wall that stays shady till mid afternoon. Most of the routes fall into the 5.10 to 5.11 range but there are a few harder routes up to 5.13a that are worthy in their own right. The right side of the wall offers mostly vertical lines while the left side has some steeper rock with numerous link-up options.
Getting There
There are a few different ways to get to the Space Buttress but the shortest from town is to head south on G321 towards Butterfly Spring and Moon Hill. Shortly after passing Butterfly Spring you will cross the Yulong River via the Workers Bridge (there are usually lots of tourist on this bridge taking pictures). Take your first left just after the bridge (not down the hill to the river parking lot) and veer left at the Y. Weave your way through JiWoDu Village sticking to the main thoroughfare until you end up on a solitary cement road passing through various rice patties, crops and orchards. When you come to the "T" intersection the crag is in front of you, just to the left. Turn left and continue about 100m to a gravel road on the left, park here somewhere making sure not to block the road. To find the trail walk back down the road towards the "T" intersection and take a left at the driveway. The trail is on the left side of this driveway next to a brick wall.
