Description Suggest change

Experience a surprisingly good time bouldering at a city park. This artificial bouldering wall with natural features has climbs ranging from V0 - V2+. The wall is 90' long and 9' tall.

Crag highlights:
1) There is a full traverse route that spans the full 90' length
2) The cave features an overhang sloper climb
3) The majority holds are crimps and 1/4 inch chips; climbing shoes are recommended
4) Although the wall is only 9' tall, every route is a top-out

This wall is located on the NW corner of the park behind the ninja warrior structure. As mentioned, this wall is all natural features with no children's climbing holds. Also in the park is a soccer field, kid's play structure, and landscaping sunset views. Following the main street will lead to a paved hillside running trail. Frequently seen are people running laps on the large staircase or practicing Yoga in the shade (look for sheep sightings).
