Description

The Geronimo Area part of the Leap...

Getting There

To get to Geronimo and @ 20+ more climbs on the Southern part of the wall, take Magma Mine Road past the Oak Flat campground. After 1.5 miles, turn left onto the dirt road FR315; reset odometer at gate and drive @ 7/10th mile. On the east/left is the end of a broad flat area, look west/right for cairn to a dim trail that heads west up the canyon for 30min. You'll arrive at the Leap's edge. To access Geronimo, Broken Arrow, et cetera, hike north/right along climber's trail to it's end (@10-15min). After you pass under a small wall look for coldshuts on large west-facing blocks at trail's end. Be cautious when looking over the edge.
