Access Issue: SOUTH SIDE CRAGS ARE CLOSED Details

7/2021: Access in this area has always been nebulous, but recently landowners have made clear that they want NO visitors in the area. Please refrain from visiting any of the crags on the Southside of the Meadow, including those along Glade Creek (Mud Hueco) and Orange Wall. This includes drivers, cyclists, ATVers, and climbers. Please climb at another crag.

Description

To start, scramble to the top of the ramped boulder or start by stemming between the boulder and the wall to reach the first bolt. Climb straight up the clean face using small but positive crimps the whole way. Near the top, the route can be made a touch harder by not using the wall to the right.

Location

This route is located toward the right side of this area. After passing Low Brow, 5.12a and Macauley's Irish Stout, 5.12b, you'll come to a ramped boulder about 3 feet away from a short face. This is the right most line between the wall and this boulder.

Protection

5 bolts, shuts.

Would have more stars if it were longer. Fun movement Oct 25, 2017

Wow, I agree with Peter. If this was 100 ft. of the same climbing style this would be 4 stars. Despite its shortness this one is fantastic. Get on it if you are in the area and love crimps with lock-offs and high steps. Jul 5, 2020
