Description Suggest change

The Netherworld, tucked beyond Batman/Mary Jane/Chameleon at Lost Wall, was once dismissed as too short or broken—turns out, that was a myth. Averaging 80 feet tall with solid, steep rock, it’s packed with surprising holds and great protection, even on the wild-looking faces. Expect plenty of 5.8s to 5.10s, plus classic 5.11s where the roofs come into play. This is pure trad climbing—just a few bolts in over forty routes—so bring your small wires and a keen eye for gear placements! Keep an eye out for loose blocks, as many routes have seen only a handful of ascents.
