Description
This is the main rock at Mickey's Beach. When you head down the main path into Mickey's Beach, this will be the most prominent rock you see. There are approximately 20 routes on the Main Rock, mostly quite tough. There are three 5.10's and then a few .11d's, the rest comprising of .12's and lower end 13's.
There are no access issues here, as the state parks system has turned a blind eye on the area. All they ask is that if you bolt, make sure to maintain what you've added.
There are tons of classics on the Main Rock, and if you're into tough climbing and are spending some time in the Bay Area and don't want to drive more than a few hours, this is where you should be.
This area will be in the sun most of the time, but some of the lower routes are tide-dependent, as the rock sits literally on the beach. Beware of fog in the morning, and also in the winter months.
Getting There
The majority of climbs are around the right side of the rock.
