PRINT: Rock Climbing in Aussie Wall, Northwest Region

(g) Aussie Wall

Washington > Northwest Region > San Juan, Fidal… > Mt Erie > (b) Shady Hollow

Description

A dirty, vegetated cliff band along the seldom used West Buttress trail. This long, fractured wall is rather secluded in the trees just above Nelson's wall.

Watch for ticks and toxic plants!

Getting There

Park at the bottom lot, and hike up, turning left on trail 247. Walk until just before New Millenium wall, and turn right onto a small trail. This is the West Buttress trail. You will see Nelson's wall on your right. Keep heading left and upwards steeply, climbing left of another small craglet (Tarheel crag) breaking right directly above that at a fork (going left eventually brings you to the mountaineer's wall)
