Description Suggest change

The 5.8 Sanctuary is an oft-overlooked small wall with just a few routes. The rock quality is excellent.

Its proximity to Seismic Wall makes it a good spot to check out if you find Seismic to be too busy.

Getting There Suggest change

Approach from Seismic Wall. To get to Seismic Wall, use the Loop 360 access trailhead. You may cross-reference the Seismic Wall page for more info on getting to the trailhead.

The trail will bring you down to the creek bed and Seismic should be visible across the bed. Cross over and turn right at Seismic Wall. Hike about 1/4 of a mile. 5.8 Sanctuary will be on your left and be forewarned that it is small and easy to miss. You will be looking for the big cave feature.

If you get about a half mile and haven't found it yet, turn back around. It's easier to find from that direction.
