Description

Small wall hidden in the trees with a few short, but fun, bolted routes.

Access issues inherited from Red Rock: Pet Wall

Most of the cliff and approach is on crown land. Some of the climbing is on private land -- the owner (John Jeffrey) has, historically, been friendly. "He likes to talk." Please be courteous and friendly if you meet him -- likely running around on a 4-wheeler.

There are, also, usually active nesting Peregrine falcons on the left side of the main cliff (left of the waterfall) -- avoid this area during the spring and summer months.

Approach

From the maple tree/helmet, step over the tree and follow the fixed rope until it ends, then turn left and head up the slope following the obvious trail. Shortly a small wall will appear off the trail to the left. Hike up to the wall. A bit over 25 minutes from the car.

Descent notes

All climbs have anchors, rappel/lower.

Ethic inherited from Red Rock: Pet Wall

Top Roping: Most/all routes have top-anchors. Please do not pass rope directly through the fixed gear for top-roping, use your own gear & only use the top-anchors for final lower or rappel.
