Description

The Sailing Wall hosts a fine collection of pocketed warmups with grades from 5.8- through 5.11. It's good place to get started if you have hiked straight up, and a few of these are the easiest lines up here.

Getting There

Follow directions for Higher Solitude Canyon. It is located just below the Main Wall on the trail.
