Access Issue: (1) Weather Wall, Yellow Wall, & all the crags north of Twin Sisters are CLOSED. (2) No trash cans. (3) Highlining temporary ban in place for CIRO and CRSP Details

(1) The area, crags, and routes just north of the Twin Sisters are on private land and the landowner recently posted no trespassing notices at the gated road/trail to the area. Any access of these areas and routes is trespassing. The area was closed by the landowner due to trespassing, illegal camping, fires & trash, and disregard of owner's privacy.
Please be respectful of the land owner's wishes and do not climb or hike here until further notice. This includes White Lightning, Skinner Roof, Weather Wall, Yellow Wall, Larry's Annihilation, Needle Rock, Mississippi Fred's, and Secret Tom's. Park officials and CRAG are working to regain access to this valuable climbing resource. Be patient and check back for updates.

Description

Secluded, featured boulder down the hill from site 17. Has 2-3 variations on it. The boulder is crumbly; might require minor scraping, and the quality features might not last.

Down climb between some trees to climber's right of the line.

Getting There

Walk to the far North of campgrounds 5-19 to find campsite 17. Follow a very faint trail N by NE past the campsite (pass the East tent-site on the left going North) for roughly a hundred yards. Boulder should be on your right.

If you're debating whether to walk through someone's active campsite to get to the boulder, or to walk a few feet around it.. just use your common sense and climb right into the tent with your new neighbors. Bring your dog; they won't mind.
