Description

This is a 30ft tall, moderately overhanging cliff with a few nice routes on it. Morning shade/afternoon sun.

For toproping, given the overhanging nature of the climbs, it may be worth lowering off and placing a directional so that the climber can easily regain the starting ledge while lowering off.

Getting There

Park on Wintechog Hill Rd, same as for Lantern Hill main cliff. Hike up the trail and follow it straight towards the main cliff, through the loose scree areas to an opening on the left with a few small boulders and 20ft tall cliff visible. Hike up left, skirting around this cliff on the left, and out right across the top. Scramble down a short ravine to the base of the foxbite cliff, or up left to setup topropes.
