Access Issue: This area is designated as Charon
Details
Currently the the US Fish and Wildlife Service is reviewing the Comprehensive Conservation Plan and reviewing activities for compatibility. Contact the Access Fund or the Wichita Mountains Climber's Coalition for more information on how you can get involved in keeping the tradition of climbing safe in the Wildlife Refuge. Use extra care to avoid doing anything to change the natural resources in any way.
Access Issue: Access is always an issue here.
Details
Please do not litter and observe all regulations. We had to fight to regain access at one time, and we don't want to lose the privilege again. Local ethics and refuge regulations are that no bolting is permitted unless expressly authorized by the park. Leave the hammer and nails at home, no fixed gear please. Everything will go clean.
Description
A long (for one pitch) slabby climb that gets easier as you go up. Once you have reached the belay station, you can walk on the slab (though not recommended). The crux is passing the first bolt using moderate friction climbing.
Route Description
Route starts essentially the same as Great Expectations and the Dihedral. From the start, veer right onto the steep slab past the first bolt, then continue up to a horizontal crack where a small cam can be placed. Continue up past another bolt and stay in the middle of the slab as the first ascent was while wearing Nike tennis shoes. The vertical crack to the left is off route. The bolts were added sometime after the first ascent.
