Description

A handful of routes ranging from 5.4 -5.10

Park at the pullout, then cross the cattle guard and culvert. Walk up the road for a few minutes, past one buttress on your left, to the second obvious outcropping. Climb hill to left, then continue uphill and right to a clean wall with some cracks.

[Hide Comment] The beta on the wall location is only partially correct. To find the routes listed, hike up 100 feet up off the road into the narrow gully for another 100 feet (up and left from the description listed here, which leads you to the Nude Beach SW Face). The obvious Over The Shoulder Boulder Holder dihedral will be on your right, with the rest of the routes listed here being up the hill to the left. May 10, 2017
