Description 

This south-facing limestone wall has two bolted sport routes and a couple of abandoned projects. The limestone layers that make up the wall slope down from left to right at about a 30 degree angle making for an interesting look.

The wall has a number of small, diagonal roofs and is streaked with various colors including a fairly vivid light blue (hence the name, presumably).


Getting There 

The Blue Wall is located on the north side of the canyon between the first and second bridges. When the second bridge can be seen ahead there is a large gully with a talus slope on the left (the second gully on the left after the first bridge). Slog up the talus to the top of the slope and turn left (west). The routes are on the right after a large roof with a prominent blue streak below and to the left of the roof.

This cool spot is not actually in the Blue Wall area but it is close to it. This is where some of the big names used to come boulder. There are tons of really cool pockets, and crimpers here. If some work on the landing was done, it would be a really great spot!
