Access Issue: This great North County Crag is located on the boundary of partial lots for sale, private property and public land.
Details
Due to its location Old Castle Crag is around private lots of land primarily old avocado groves. As of now current land managers have no issues with access to this Crag. Respect land owners keep a low profile and most importantly clean up any trash, you pack out what you pack in. Thanks and Enjoy.
Description
This route is the classic line for this formation, it is quite long due to its wondering traversing nature. Great climbing up the middle of the formation, following all of the most obvious features this wall has to get to the top. The crux is not falling into the patches of Cacti that litter some of the features you climb above.
Location
Cactus Impactus starts right at the center of toe of slab. Climb face features up 25' until it becomes possible to Traverse right under a small roof exiting it on its right side. Follow broken cracked flake features up and right until it becomes possible to traverse right under large capped roof system. Traverse under this until the end.
