Description

This is a subarea created for better organization. It will include routes in the area of the Outhouse. Obviously, with an ice park, the routes will vary with spigot proliferation.

For the time being, these routes will include: Plunger to Royal Flush.

The names are inspired by the Outhouse above.

Per Liu Yuezhang : this was reopened in the 2022-23 season after 8 years of closure. The routes here are usually belayed by the tree anchors across the fence. Designated tree anchors are covered with cloth.

This subarea was submitted twice. To avoid duplication and confusion, the information is combined on this page.

Getting There

Hike up to the ice park, or drive and park. Then go a significant way downhill from the lower bridge on the western side/far side of the gorge. You can easily reach this area going uphill from the downhill end of the gorge by hiking uphill from town. The best identifying feature is the brick outhouse near the top of this area.

Most folks will rappel down or be lowered in to climb these routes.

Per Liu Yuezhang: use the trail on the far right side of Five Fingers (on the right of the Poodle Sex) to access the canyon. Or walk from the Five Fingers or just rappel down.
