Description Suggest change

The Dry Wall is the most popular crag in Echo Canyon. It faces southeast and offers afternoon shade with fun, convenient climbing. Expect a grueling 20 second approach from the road. The wall is very tall and its long gently overhanging nature protects the routes from rain during all but the most intense storms.

Getting There Suggest change

2.95 miles up the frontage road (E Echo Canyon Road) from where you turn right onto the frontage road after passing under the freeway. Look for the obvious parking on the south side shoulder of the frontage road.
