Description
The Prow is a large limestone area to the right of the Hantavirus cave. It is almost directly across the river from the property that recently put the billboard up(Gross!). The climbs here ascend through a looseish sill to gain the more solid limestone above. That being said these climbs do not see a ton of traffic and still are host to many loose holds and rock. Be careful and wear a helmet.
Getting There
These climbs are accessed by driving south on 191 as if going towards Big Sky from Bozeman. Turn left onto Storm Castle trailhead access and cross the large bridge. Take a right immediately after crossing the bridge and head down this road passing a ranger station that is sometimes host to a helicopter. Head down until you are under the largest part of the wall and find a small pullout on the right side of the road. Park here and head up a slight gully to the base of the climbs. Aim for the center of the wall and you should find the easiest way to access the terrace that you will be climbing off of.
