Description Suggest change

The second band of Redstein has higher rock quality than first band and a good variety of sport and trad routes. Lots of work has been done to help with the erosion of the base ledge, but it's still a bit sketchy. There are anchors for the belayer at most climbs.

Getting There Suggest change

As you head up the approach gully, pass the cairn marking the first band, climb another 100', and look for a ramp system up to the right. This goes around a block, then the 2nd band will be laid out in front of you.
