Access Issue: Neighborhood Parking Details

Please be mindful of the neighbors on Big Rock Lake Road. Do not park along the road, generate excessive noise in the parking lot or at the cliff, or camp out. If the parking is full, use the spot at the intersection of Preston McDaniel and Nine Times Roads. This is a neighborhood, drive slow and be courteous. Violating one of these rules is an easy way to get the cliff shutdown for everyone.

Access Issue: Private Property Details

The far right side of the X-Wall is very close to private property. Do not wander too far right or down the hill from this wall.

Description

X-Wall is a fun, well featured wall that faces SE. Many routes here have a tendency to seep for several days after a rain. All routes are easily top-accessible by walking to the far left of the formation and scrambling up through a notch. Walk back climbers right and descend back down when you can see the anchors.

Getting There

The right side approach from the Main Parking leads you to this wall. When you reach the cliff, the trail turns left, go down and right here. There is a large landing you come to with two 5.8's. To get to the lower routes, you have to descend the notch between the boulder and cliff, or slide down the slab to the right of the boulder.
