MAP

A nice looking wall, with a tiered roof at about mid-height on the wall. The first bolt on all of the routes here is stickclip mandatory. There are a few dangerous flakes and blocks on each of the climbs here that would not be fun if they were pulled off on a belayer. This wall does face north and does not receive any sun, except on a summer evening. Approach: Challenging Approach! Park as for Sex Cave, and cross the stream to the south where you can find a good place to cross. The creek crossing is best between September through early March. Once across the creek, find the 3rd class ledge traverse to get to the base of a loose scree field. Be careful here, if you slide down the scree field then you’ll fall off of a 30 foot cliff. Once you scramble up the hillside, traverse to your left on ledges to get to the base of the wall. There may be a couple cairn to follow along the way, since there were at the time of writing this. 30 min
