Details
If you use chalk on the rock, brush it off when you are done. If you use tick marks, brush them off when you are done. Wipe your feet off prior to each climbing attempt. Excess chalk and any dirt, leaves, or mud can polish holds over time. Do not drag your pad from one climb to the next (in order to minimize erosion). And most importantly, Leave No Trace. Pick up your trash and place it in the trash cans at the trail head.
Description
Also known as "Jimi Cliff", this is the most popular wall for toproping at Coopers. A few routes on this wall can also be protected with a standard trad rack. You can easily access the top by scrambling around the left side of the cliff. There are plenty of large trees to use as toprope anchors. You will probably need around 50’ of webbing or static rope to make an adequate anchor.
Getting There
From the main parking lot, follow the trail by the Climbers Kiosk out past the main roadside bouldering area. After a few minutes of walking you will come to a 20’ - 30’ cliff on your left, this is Sunset Wall. The cliff is split in the middle by a chimney known as "Into The Sunset" (5.6)
