Peacepipe Arroyo

Texas > Franklin Mtn Range > McKelligon Canyon

Description

Peacepipe Arroyo is a collection of small crags within the McKelligon Canyon area. This area was initially listed in the Franklin Mountain Range Guidebook (2010). The rock quality is variable with potential for loose rocks. This is an excellent place to top rope, or just get some practice placing traditional gear, as the routes in the lower section are roughly 100 feet in length and mostly easy-to-moderate in grade with scrambling access through Last Chance to set top ropes for every route.

Getting There

From the horse stable - follow the main wash passing The Wizard, veer right into the next mini canyon to find the lower section of Peacepipe Arroyo.
