Politico Wall Guide

  • Grade context: US
  • Ascents: 1

A Crag Guide gives an extensive view of all sub areas and climbs at a point in the index. It shows a snapshot of the index heirachy, up to 300 climbs (or areas) on a single web page. It shows selected comments climbers have made on a recently submitted ascent.

At a minor crag level this should be suitable for printing and taking with you on a climbing trip as an adjunct to your guidebook.

This is the first area that you get to from the parking lot. It is to the right of the Desert Shield area, separated from it by a vegetated gully. Steep, juggy, low and thin higher up; 5.8+ to 5.10c

description

From the herd path from the parking lot, take the first climber's trail to the right (3 min from trailhead). Look for boltlines to the left of a soggy, gross chimney.

access issues

Watch out for muddy conditions in the spring and for signs indicating closure of the Main Wall or the Big Wall due to peregrin falcon nesting.
