Description

The Lower Tier has a small collection of moderate sport climbs, almost all on lower angle slabs. Most of the anchors for these climbs can also be accessed from the upper tier for those wanting to set top-ropes.

Getting There

From the direct approach, you will get to the right hand side of the cliff near the top of the trail. You will first see Teachers Pet, and then the remaining climbs on a larger slab another 100 feet further to the left (south). From the Gong Show approach, you will first come to the slab containing Sage Advice.
