Access Issue: Post Hurricane Helene Accessibility of Crags Details

The CCC has created the list linked below of accessible and inaccessible climbing areas with some caveats. If you decide to head out for a day of climbing, please do not attempt to go to those marked ‘inaccessible’. Please note that all areas in WNC will have extensive tree damage and if you head out, use extra caution for all the trees above, especially on a windy day. Rock fall potential is also highest after a big weather event. Please use extra caution while climbing and prepare to self rescue if injured. Injury response time will be greatly limited for any injury currently, especially for a remote injury. Cell service is limited in all areas. Parking at accessible crags in the WNC/ Upstate SC region will likely be challenging. If the parking lot is full, go to a different area and do not park illegally or in a road. Make a plan B before leaving your house. Expect road detours on the way to the crag. NCdrive.gov updates road closures. Once you get to the crag, expect many trees blocking access trails and of course, come volunteer with the CCC to help us bring our climbing areas back!

Description

West-facing wall toward the north end of the summit. One of the taller walls at Crowders, it offers some short two-pitch climbs.

To descend from the top of Two Pitch Wall, head south and you will eventually be deposited on the summit trail. From there, the shortest return to the base of Two Pitch Wall is the gully running down from the backside of Middle Finger.

Getting There

When hiking up the usual Backside Trail to the summit, you will see a fence blocking a trail that leads up to Two Pitch Wall. DO NOT USE THIS TRAIL. The fence is there for a reason. Instead, hike the stairs to the summit and take the trail to Middle Finger Wall. If you continue past the base of Middle Finger Wall, you will eventually come to Two Pitch Wall. Scramble up to a ledge, which is where the climbs start.

Alternately, if you are at the backside of Middle Finger Wall, you can use a steep gully to travel down and northward. This gully will deposit you near the south end of Two Pitch Wall.
