Looking north from Isolation Canyon's Main Wall to Pine, AZ.
#4 on Remission 5.9R, it has a couple of long runouts in the wide spots. Fun route if you don't mind chimnneys.
This is the alternate approach for parking at Isolation. You can also park at Pine Trailhead and walk by the old parking area.
From Mile Post 266.3, turn south through a large clearing to the Power Line Road. Turn right at the Power Line road on a recently improved and graded dirt road to it's end at the Arizona Trail. Park here. A large boulder blocks the gate to Old County Road

Multi-pitch
Gail and I walked along the canyon bottom to the Narrows and climbed up above the waterfall on Checkerboard (5.6).

Long approach, but so worth it.
Main Wall from the approach trail. Climbers on Submission just left of the prickly pear.
