Can any one who climbs in Lake Tahoe please give me some routes that can be easily top roped in the range of 5.5-5.10b, this website hasnt given me much help with it. |

90 foot wall on the east shore and donner summit are your best bets. |
|
Can you guys give me directions/road names on how to get to green phantom rock from "97 china garden ct glenbrook Nevada, 89413" this website doesnt give me good beta on how to get there at all. much appreciated you dont really have to tell me from that address but from Truckee would be very helpful. |
|
Paul, if you are in Glenbrook you are better off going to 90 foot wall at Emerald bay. |

Hey Matt thanks for the directions on my other post to green phantom rock. i was thinking about 90 foot wall too, but on this site it didnt tell me if you could walk around to the top to set up anchors. do you know if that can be done? |

Plenty of anchors up top to TR any of the lines. It's sort of a top rope gym mixed with the occasional aghast traddie. |

Make a right at the Y (junction of 89 and 80) take 89 north toward Emerald Bay. Park at the Emerald Bay Parking lot. Hike into toward the Eagle Lake waterfall... 90 ft wall is just over the rock hills (w). If you get lost just ask someone with climbing gear where 90 ft wall is. Also Smoke Rock is top ropeable. It is a short walk right behind the toilets... follow the trail and you'll see the chalk. MattFor Parking should i get directions directly to the state park or should i get them for the visitor center? |

Is the Parking lot on Emerald Bay Road? because thats as far as mapquest will assist me. thanks for all your help guys |
