[Hide Comment] Fun climbing here. Though remember it is Green Diamond property. A public easement is in progress, but to my understanding not in effect yet. All hikers and climbers are technically trespassing (though nobody cares as long as you’re not making home in a tree). Climbers make sure you are the BEST visitors when you go. I haven’t heard of many people climbing here, but I know my dad used to top rope here in 1974. Several routes have been led recently after some loose rock cleaning, and most all of the cliff faces on the east, south, and west have been toproped, though not frequently. Our thoughts are to keep this place bolt-free, especially if access isn’t officialized. I always have a blast every time I go out there. Apr 26, 2018
