Description

Tricks Wall is a secluded cliff home to several hard splitters including the Steve Hong mega-pitch mega-classic Tricks Are For Kids.
The wall sits more or less across beef basin from Technicolor wall, facing Northwest.

Getting There

Some guide books recommend parking at Way Rambo and walking down valley on an old road paralleling the cliffs. This would work fine but would be a long walk. We found it easier to park at Technicolor pullout just of the BB road, and then follow cattle trails across the valley, across the creek (very bushy) aiming for the wall. You will cross the same old road that leads to the dugout ranch. Aim for Tricks are For Kids, it is very visible as a perfect line up a massive slab of varnished stone. There is a obvious talus ridge heading up just lookers right of "Tricks" a fairly well marked trail ascends this ridge to the base of "Tricks"
