Mogul cliffs. Probably some ok bouldering around ...
Description
A collection of broken rocks, boulders, and pillars varying from boulders to 50' high. The rock is coarse granite, faces south, and is more worth visiting for its novelty than the quality if it's climbing.
Getting There
Off of the very west end of W 4th street go Under highway and take a left (westbound). Take a right on Cliffview and drive into neighborhood. The cliffs and rocks become visible quickly. As the road curves to the right there is a pull out ont a dirt road by the flume. Park here. Several deer tails head up to the rocks.
Above the tallest tower on the right is a 40" tall boulder split by two cracks. The left crack is a 5-6" wide bulging off width. Start by climbing through easier ground (5.7) over broken rock to the base of the main crack. Fists, lay backing and strenuous off fists will get you past the buldge. The crack is filled with debris and bird shit. Not a terribly pleasant climb but not bad for working off width skills....[more]Browse More Classics in NV
Saw a large rattlesnake right at the base of the tallest climb today. Scared the crap out of me. Second time I've seen one here. Too bad cause this is a decently neat area for its proximity to reno.
