Description

Hidden high above the Railroad Gully, Cloud Nine adds some solid moderate climbs to the mix at the Bolton Dome.

Getting There

At the top of the Railroad Gully, follow a series of fixed lines on your right until you reach the ledge. This approach can get a bit damp and slippery. A rappel anchor at the left end of the ledge is a preferable descent to the fixed line.
