Description Suggest change

Grassy Glades is a west-facing wall with some great 8-11a climbs. It's a worthwhile stop on your way to Morning Glory or for something easier before tackling Great White. Generally crowded on weekends. Its routes have either chains or rap rings at the top of the climbs.

Getting There Suggest change

Take the path just below the upper parking lot past Daycare and Diamondback. When you hit Elusive Edge, take the right path towards Grassy Glades. After a bit of hiking, you'll see a sign telling you to go left to Great White or right to Grassy Glades. Take the right path and you'll see Grassy Glades soon on your left. Perhaps a 25 minute hike.
