Description
There are multiple multipitch lines but the approach pitches are significantly dirty with an alpine feel. Be careful with the freeze thaw cycle as this will dislodge rocks, especially in the off-width climbs.
This is multi pitch climbing. Chunder Gully is it's own complete line which has the original start or can also done via Fourthplay (suggested). You can also access Juniper Ledge via Walk of Shame, 5.5, from it's third pitch.
The other lines consist of a variety of alternative pitches starting from various, subsequent ledges. In order from bottom to top these are:
- Sacraledge (accessed by Fourthplay, 5.7)
- The Tip (accessed from Prince Albert, 10b, and Reach Around, 10c)
- Juniper Ledge (accessed from Awesome Sauce + Walk of Shame, 10d, and Vitamin D, 11+)
- From Juniper Ledge, you can then 'top out' via Constant Climax, 5.8/9, Nature's Pocket, 11-, and Pull Down, Not Out, 5.7.
To make it more confusing, from Sacraledge, you can climb Torsion, 11a (as either 1 or 2 pitches) to reach Juniper Ledge (skipping The Tip).
Note: Cell service is extremely spotty in the canyon. Have an alternative means to communication (i.e. InReach, Sat phone, check-in plan w/ friend, two-way radio, etc.) if you are planning to spend the day up in this dreamy crag.
