The Fortress Rock Climbing

This remote cliff has some of the best limestone in Northern California, topping even Cecilville Bluffs. Unfortunately, its remoteness has caused it to instantly fade away after it’s first few visits... despite world-class quality. The cliff is perched up the hill across the river from the Fly Froggie Wall, visible from Cecilville Bluffs. There is potential for around 60 new, would-be classic routes on perfect stone up to 250’ tall. The potential routes would range from 5.10-5.14. A rebolting of the current RB routes would be a great start to resurrecting this magnificent cliff. Additional route development will eventually bring people out to see the sea of excellent stone. If you wander up there, you’ll be rewarded with excellent rock, a rousing potential for new routes, and surely several memorable adventures!
