Description Suggest change

Sunshine Wall is a very enjoyable wall 50 yards west of the climbing parking access. This corridor is usually in the sun no matter what time of year. In the summer, it might be too hot. The angle of the corridor will either totally block any wind or become a wind tunnel.

On the far west end, you will find the terrifying Birthday Sex, which if you fell off near the top you could potentially fall a long, long way. The main wall has a number of fun contrivances to really maximize a stop at the wall.

Getting There Suggest change

From the main street stop light in Buena Vista, head east on Main Street, and turn left on North Colorado Avenue. This road changes name to CR 371. Keep heading on this road until a right hand turn right before the tunnels on CR 375. Stay on this road until you hit "Turtle Rock Campground". Once in the campground, go left on the loop until it comes to the rock climbing parking access. From parking area, head SW for 25 yards, then go straight west into the slightly overhung corridor.
