Access: MORE INFO >>>
For the moment, access to this area by climbers should be from a temporary trailhead/parking area that is located near the old Morrell's Wall Parking Lot area. From there, the new Tom's Thumb Trail leads up toward Morrells Wall, Gardeners Wall and on to Tom's Thumb. Please look for, and use designated climber access trails.
This information is a public crowdsourcing effort between the Access Fund,
and Mountain Project. You should confirm closures, restrictions, and/or related dates.

| Not sure exactly what climb this is describing, but here's how we did it: Pitch 1: The Phantom, 5.7+, 45'. Steep fingerlocks to a ledge. Pitch 2: ?, 5.7, 100'. Headed straight up past two older, but good bolts to a right leaning crack. Follow this as it thins, then goes vertical. The crack widens to offwidth and heads straight at the top anchors for the Phantom. Fortunately you can climb outside it easily without jamming the sharp rock. Gear would be Standard Rack, with a large piece or two. (#5 max, #4 might work). |
