Description
The west-facing far right wall of Mariuolumne Dome, completely different approach than the main wall (Hobbit Book, etc). Mostly moderate routes, with some large roofs. Also home to the Al Dude testpiece (and ground-up bolted) 5.12 slab Testify.
Getting There
Above Lake of the Domes, approach via the gully right of Drug Dome, or better by climbing something to the top of Medlicott Dome and hiking left.
[Hide Photo] Nazgul Wall. Yellow line is Galadriel (the top of which follows the top of the wall, the main formation behind is hard to distinguish), red is Isengard, green is Lothlorien, blue is Testify.
[Hide Comment] In the 12 range for sure. Really good trad bolted route. I can’t remember how the bolt condition was 20+ years ago when climbing it. What a great area!
