Coup D'etat Wall

Arkansas > North-Central A… > Sam's Throne &… > Sam's Throne > 3. W Main Bluff

Description

Mostly cracks, a few stellar faces, though.

Getting There

This area is at the right end of the West Main Bluff, as seen from below. Just right of Razorback Roof, the rock forms a large dihedral. Here, hike up to access the base of the routes. They continue all the way to the rap near the Chickenhead Wall.
