Summary

Red sandstone quarry

Description

I bolted most of the sport routes here. There are about 25 in the mid-5.10 range. Nice for 1-2 days of sport climbing. I built this to mirror European climbing, lots of bolts, family friendly, fun day at the climbing park. Not a place to send projects.

I put my descriptions here:

Also tons of awesome bouldering across the river. Never been there.

In winter this is the place to go for most of the USA. They have an ice farm that faces north and is very very popular.

Access issues

None.

Approach

2 minutes from parking, flat

Where to stay

I don't think they allow camping, but there is camping in Banning Park north of here OR lots of hotels by the casinos about 7 miles south.

Ethic

Have fun, not many rules. Prefer you don't dry tool on sport climbs.
