Tiered Rock

  • Grade context: US

Description

The middle rock, already with the fewest climbs one of the routes is now blocked by a new shrine.

Access issues inherited from Chealea

Please be polite to the locals. Say hello, ask if you can park, tell them you are going up to climb, say goodbye when you leave. They’ll be very helpful and even keep an eye on your car/moto, if you are polite.

Approach

Hike up the stairs to the north of No More Monks to access the saddle between it and Tiered, or downclimb from Broken Pot Rock to access the other side.

History

History timeline chart

Previously there was a very small pagoda between the rocks, it has long since broken down (a fact that has mistakenly been credited for the name No More Monks). Route were established on the short but challenging west face of Tiered Rock, but then the belay area was largely blocked when a new shrine was built.

Grade Route

Start directly below the tree. Either continue to the top of the rock or traverse left to the wide ledge. This climb provides safe access to the "Short but Sweet" and "Straight-up" anchors.

Closed

Truly short and bitter sweet climb that begins atop an old concrete slab from the old Pagoda.[Update: there is now a shrine on the slab, probably best to avoid climbing above it.] Accessing the anchors is a bit dicey but possible from the top of the rock. A better option is climbing Warm-Up and taversing left to the wide ledge.

A short beginners route. Climb the slab to the broad ledge. For access to the anchors, follow the suggestions for "Short but Sweet".
