Description
One of the largest and most varied crags at the Far Side, Overhaul was the first crag developed on the north side of the highway. It offers a range of grades, rock types and styles. Relief Camp, the leftmost section, is a tall, steep and heavily featured piece of rhinostone with some spectacular 11s and two inconceivable 12+'s in the mini cave. As you move right, the Motherland is located exactly at the fault line between the andesite upthrusts and the Snoqualmie granite batholith, combining elements of the two formations. Don't miss the astounding roof chimney Offspring 12a. Continuing right, the rock gets more granitic friction and slabby angle and the average grades ease.
Getting There
Hike the main Far Side trail for about 20-25 min until you reach the intersection for Gritscone; a little before is the uphill turnoff (marked with a sign) for Overhaul. Heading up the steep trail for five more minutes leads you to the first area, and the other crags are found to the right along discontinuous paths.
