The bolted route goes up the left side of the face, although the entire face is quite climbable.

[Hide Comment] With the development of the Hall of Legends this area seems now to be overlooked. Too bad. This is the first area that brought me out to Apache Leap. Most or all of the routes pre-date the Hall and there is some great climbing to be had here. In particular Geronimo, Puzzle Pieces, Broken Arrow and Skyscraper are all fine routes. Rap in and climb out. You will almost certainly have the place to yourself, even on a perfect weather Saturday. Jul 6, 2025
