Climbing Near Lakeway, Texas

On the lake in between pace bend and lakeway. You could call it deep water soloing. At normal water levels the cliffs are only about 6-7ft out of the water. Mostly v0-v4 with bare feet. Probably a lot easier with climbing shoes. The cliffs run very deep for the most part so falling on rocks isn’t a big issue It’s in a cove on the opposite side of the lake from point venture. I’ve only gotten there by boat and swimming to the cliffs. You could map to Lakehurst Loop in Spicewood near lakeway and hike over to this area.
