Description Suggest change

Come prepared to Jam! This area sports a couple bolted routes and many excellent cracks.

This is a shady north facing cliff on the south side of the Boise River.

Getting There Suggest change

From Warm Springs turn right onto highway 21 and cross overt the river. Go a short ways up the hill and turn left into the Oregon Trail Interpretive Center. From the center hike along the dirt fire-road closest to the top of the cliff. Follow this for about 3/4 mile until it takes a sharp left. At this point leave the road and follow the single track trail to the base of the Green Acres wall.

A good portion of the Green Acres wall collapsed this morning. The rockfall sent car sized boulders and talus all the way down to the river.

The remaining routes. (As well as the new one). See Sandy Epeldi's book (pg 110) for a picture of the wall before it fell. Everything between The Garden and Feelin Green has been destroyed.

A huge rockfall happened this morning, basically destroying the green acres wall except a few climbs. Pretty scary to think of all the times I climbed those routes without realizing how destabilized the entire cliff was!
