Description
Listed problems are located on the North side of the road within Capitol Gorge. Just through the gate, right after the wash enters on the right side.
There is a lot more potential around the area, some boulders on the South side of the road and more further down.
Keep to the trails and washes - there is a lot of Cryptobiotic Soil in the area. If climbing becomes destructive to the fragile ecosystem here we may lose access to the area entirely!
