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.
The crux is pulling on some small holds around the third bolt. Followed by cranking through lots of jugs for some really fun climbing all the way to the top. A wonderful line. One of the longest lines on the wall, but can be done easily with a single 50m rope.

Follows the intermittent crack/seam in the center of the wall. #9 on the photo topo.

A really fun line, but probably a bit soft at 12a. The crux is way harder than everything else on the route and very short. I think this detracts a bit from the quality.
