Description Suggest change

The upper right side of Oak Creek Canyon contains a number of remote, high quality routes. Although this is a continuation of the Eagle Wall area to its right, the approach and character of this area are different. The angle is not as steep, yielding much more moderate climbing. The descents are easy and the rock sunny. Large pine trees and running water give this area an alpine feel. The Celebration wall is the varnished slab on the left and the Ski Tracks, diagonal cracks cutting through unvarnished rock, marks the right edge of this area.

Getting There Suggest change

Approach by following the drainage up past Solar Slab, Black Orpheus, and finally the cairns marking the approach to Levitation 29. Stay generally in the drainage, toiling over the boulders and through the brambles. You can save a little time by escaping to the south (left) side of the gully for a while a bit past the turnoff to Levitation but no matter how you do this it's a long haul. The approach is 2 hours or longer, depending on conditions.
