Chalk is unsightly to non-climbers. Please avoid chalking up boulder problems that are visible from the Chicago Lakes Trail, & in general, keep chalk use to a minimum. Brush all tick marks off after every session. Use containers that prevent chalk spills & if you do spill, clean it up.
Stashing crash pads is forbidden by the USFS. Pads will be confiscated.
Noise: this is a Wilderness area that is enjoyed by many, mostly non-climbers. The last thing passing hikers want to hear are f-bombs, iPod speakers, grunting, etc. In fact, most other CLIMBERS don't want to hear any of these things either. The easiest way for us to lose access is to elicit complaints from other user groups.
Dogs must be leashed at all times, they scare wildlife. Obviously, clean up after your dog.
Remember we are guests in this area. Be respectful of other users & the USFS Rangers that manage this area.
It's free to access any area by hiking instead of driving. That includes hiking from Echo Lake Park to Roadside, Gateway, Area A, Possibility, and everything around there. It also includes Hell's Hole and other areas.
Description
Lama climbs the highly featured flake system in the middle of the south face, just right of Dali. This is one of the best V-Easy problems at Mt Evans, with fun moves on excellent rock.
Begin sitting on a large boulder immediately below the flake. This start is a few feet higher than the start of Dali. It would be possible to start lower, which would up the grade and reduce the quality. Lieback up the flake until it bends to the right. Traverse right along the top edge of the flake to a precarious stance on less than ideal holds. Make a short stab up to the heavily chalked block just below the lip. Drop down or mantle easily over the top.
