Description Suggest change

Sun and shade at this excellent cliff. There are several quality routes and it is well worth spending a day here.

Very easy to combine with a trip to Holiday Wall, as this wall is only five minutes beyond.

Getting There Suggest change

Hike about 50 yards up a creek bed just beyond Holiday Wall, then head up left across slabs. Look for the tight cleft in the wall. It seems a bit easier to stay a bit lower and come up to the lower tier first. The namesake route, James Brown, climbs the face outside and to the left of the gap.
