Description

The plateau has a climbing season of May-October, depending on the year. Forest Service roads will be muddy in early season, although roads do not have a lot of clay/silt, so they drain fairly well. The climbing consists of small little karst sinkholes. All the climbing is on Forest Service land. The rock is Limestone that is fairly stable. It can be chossy and have loose blocks due to infrequency of climbs. If you ever see another climber here, I will be surprised.

Getting There

Located 25 Miles southeast of Fredonia on the 89A. The 89A is a paved two lane highway that is open year round. Areas are approached using Forest Service Roads. This area is on the way to the North Rim of the Grand Canyon if approaching from the west.
