Description Suggest change

Buddha's Belly walll is straight ahead after making the first major left hand turn off the main road. Several lines exist with both trad, sport, and toprope routes. The rock is a south facing granite with mostly face type climbing. Descent routes are off the back or set up a rappel through the chains. Buddha's Belly 5.10 is a must do.

Directions Suggest change

Per Chris Parrish: I found it by taking the second major left off the main road. From here take the second left into a parking area. (Note: this second left connects with the first left in a looped driveway thing.) You'll be facing the Front of Buddha's Belly Rock. Buddha's Belly is around to the right a bit when looking at the front. Hope this helps!
