Description
The "Black Wall" lies just left of the Great Northern Slab (i.e. The Free Area) at the Lower Town Wall. It has a dark brownish color that contrasts with the neighboring grey rock of the Free Area, and the wall is fairly uniformly vertical. The middle-right side tends to stay wet longer than the rock at the Free Area.
On the left of the Black Wall lies a shorter wall of lighter color and different texture. This wall, the Feathered Wall has a corrugated, downsloping, and sharp texture with reddish and whitish rock.
