Description Suggest change

This is a subarea created for better organization. It will include routes below the bridges and below the Scottish Gullies and upstream from the Outhouse Wall. Obviously, with an ice park, the routes will vary with spigot proliferation; however, much of this terrain has already been filled in, but then again, there are bolts for mixed routes.

For the time being, these routes will include: Playing Hooky to Poodle Sex.

Some of these routes utilize anchors on the uphill side of the road with long lengths of chains.

Getting There Suggest change

Hike up to the ice park, or drive and park. Then go downhill from the lower bridge on the western side/far side of the gorge. You can easily reach this area going uphill from the downhill end of the gorge by hiking uphill from town.

Most folks will rappel down or be lowered in to climb these routes.
