Description

The Sunset Slabs are the westmost climbing area at Mount Erie, and offer beautiful sunset views as well as warm climbing. The larger, moderate, easily accessed Sunset Slab and Mountaineer's Walls are popular with beginners, and there's a few more minor toprope crags scattered around in the area.

Getting There

Following the Sunset Trail past Powerline and Orange areas leads to it heading down on the west edge of the Sunset area; the West Buttress trail splits off before this and allows access to Mountaineer's Wall.
