Description Afternoon shade. This area is a lot of trees. Shaddy and cool.
Getting There Drive up the canyon 5.7 miles from the flashing sign. There is a pull out on the North Side of the road. Walk up the hill into the trees and you can't miss the wall.

Dead Drunk 5.10+ UT : Wasatch Range : ... : Ambush Wall
Most people feel that the crux is between the second and third bolt. After the first three bolts the angle and climbing ease considerably, although, the climbing is still fun after the third bolt. Good, fun route. I felt the route was a bit easier than the rating it has been given. Best of the two routes on the wall. This one starts out very steep and then eases up. It is the leftmost route (northern most route) on the upper ambush wall. ... [more] Browse More Classics in UT

| I would agree with an upper and lower designation. This wall is a lot of fun but still a little dirty. Some air cans would go a long way. I counted a total of 6 sport routes. 4 below, 2 above. |

| so far so good. the wall is cleaning up nicely, still holding a few loosey's but with a little care you won't be ripping off anything. if your a moderate sport climber this is your spot. |

| Folks, not counting the 5.11d that is rarely cimbed, there are only 5 routes here, and two of them share an anchor, so if there are more than 2 cars parked at the pullout, you may want to look elsewhere, or be prepared to wait your turn. Or you can do like some ass did yesterday--even though there were already three cars below, he pulled up leading a group of SIX, threw their packs and stuff right on top of ours, and proceeded to hop on one of the two 5.8's without asking even though there was already a climber on the route next to it that shares anchors. Large groups and impatient tools should look elsewhere. |
