Description

A prominent feature hosting potential for short (2 pitch) climbs as well as an easy walk off down the trail. The rock quality on the Wedge is pretty good except for some loose blocks here and there as this is a new area. Lots of potential for easy sport climbing as the faces of the Wedge host very featured granite with really cool holds.

Getting There

As the trail to Hermits starts getting steep and riddled with switchbacks, you will notice a huge "nob" feature in the middle of the canyon, you can't miss it. Continue up the trail until reaching the base of this feature.
