The Outback Rock Climbing

The Outback is Capulin’s furthest up-canyon area and has one of the shortest and easiest approaches of all Capulin areas on the north side of the canyon. The area is just outside of the Dome Wilderness boundary. The routes are shorter than most other Capulin areas and offer a handful of mostly moderate thin hands/hands cracks with a good variety of features and movement along with two fully-bolted sport routes. The area makes a nice "Capulin intro" area or a place to get a lot of mileage in a day. Like nearly all other Capulin areas, the area faces south. It is also possible to setup top ropes from the top on some of the routes which is unique for Capulin. Long time Capulin climbers won’t have much interest in the area but those new to Capulin looking for less sustained, less difficult routes with a much easier approach may enjoy it. Most all anchors are cord/webbing/rope with a screwlink. Feel free to bring chain and hardware upgrades. Thanks. All bolts in the area are glue-ins on account of the softer rock.
