Access Issue: PRIVATE PROPERTY. Open with restrictions. Details

This area is overseen by MNDOT. Keep a low profile and stay off of the highway. Stay off of the obvious climb in the dihedral where the tunnel meets the highway. Also note, the top is private property.

Description

There are few bolted sport routes and potential for a few trad lines here but the rock is pretty crumbly and more cleaning would be in order.

There is a bike route directly below the cliff and since MNDOT maintains the area, bikers and tourists get the right of way.

Getting There

About 8 miles north of Two Harbors. Park in the scenic pull off and follow the bike trail up to the cliff.
