Climbing is currently allowed in Last Chance Canyon. Continued access is everyones responsibility. MORE INFO >>>
After careful consideration and discussions with Access Fund representatives and members of the climbing community, posting Last Chance Canyon beta will now be allowed on Mountain Project. However, when climbing at Last Chance Canyon we must be considerate of the Forest Services’ current ban on bolting new routes, climbing, and trespassing within the Solstice and Hermit Caves. The concerns of the Forest Service include archeological resources and rare or endangered plant species in the area. Please, tread lightly, and approach the area with a sense of respect.
Access Fund representatives are currently working with the Forest Service in creating a Climbing Management Plan for the area. We can assist them in this process by acting responsibly as a user group. As a community of climbers, it is important that visiting and local climbers share the responsibility in conducting themselves in a way that reflects positively on our larger community. Please respect the requests and policies of the Forest Service in order to preserve our access to this area.

Description
Smooth slabby start, (you can cheat up the corner to avoid the ankle snapping fall if you blow it) leads up to a couple of nice cruxes. First one, you can pull on small crimps, or use the sidepull undercling to make the long reach to the rail just below the 4th bolt. Then right at the chains is another technical section. Watch Z clipping the chains, as the 4th bolt is near.
Location
Left most under the big roof.
Protection
Bolts, Chain anchor.
Birds and Spiders
It is not uncommon for spiders and birds to make the left crack their home. Reaching the chains, I typically throw an arm in to make the final clip, birds flapping out scared the bejezus out of my buddy.
