Description
This crag has mostly vertical rock. There are some tufas that provide a bit of variety on some of the routes. It gets morning sun until mid-afternoon (shade starting at 2:30pm in Febrary). Most of the routes are long, 25-35m so bring a 70m rope.
The wall sits up pretty high so you're rewarded with great view looking back into town.

Getting There
Turn left from the front door of the Stone Drum House and walk along the paved road for a short distance before it turns to a trail. Cross the irrigation stream and continue up the trail for about 100m until you see a fork in the trail. You wan to turn left and head uphill slightliy. If you start to hike into a narrow valley, you missed your turn. Follow this uphill for about 15 minutes (20-25 minutes total) until you reach the base of the wall on your left. You should be able to spot bolts and a more faint trail leading to the base of the wall.
