Description

Quality rock that catches sun in the mornings. Primarily bolted.

Erosion at the base of the wall, especially on the right side, has left the first bolt extremely high on some routes. Compounded by the highly smooth and polished rock in these areas, a stick clip is highly advised!

Getting There

Once you're in the canyon this is the first large bolted wall on the left.
