Description

Miles' Cliff is a good-sized cliff face extruding from the ground with some plants growing out it. Cool overhanging features and juggy holds offer (what I consider) the coolest climbing at the reservoir.

Getting There

Park at the scenic overlook. Cross the road, and head southeast through the field towards a hill with lots of sloping rock formations. Navigate the labyrinthine ledges and free-standing boulders, continuing to trend southeast and up until you reach the top of the hill. Look around in the trees for a large boulder with another, smaller boulder on top of it, this is the Cat Lawyer Boulder. From here, head south, downhill, about 15 meters to the Roof Party Boulder, then go east towards the dome about 15 meters. The face is tucked into the hillside but is adjacent to a small clearing, so it's easy to find once you've located Cat Lawyer and Roof Party. The GPS coordinates should be accurate.
