The El Cajon Mountain climbing area is in close proximity to the San Diego River Park Foundation property. This property's purpose is to protect and conserve San Diego's threatened habitat and wildlife in perpetuity. Specifically, the San Diego River Park Foundation are protecting golden eagles that nest in the area and ceanothus, a California lilac that is an endemic sensitive plant species. Please avoid and limit recreational activities at the San Diego River Park Foundation property to promote San Diego's threatened habitat and wildlife. Thank you!
Description
Although short, it is on good rock and has an excellent crux. Start off from a small ledge into the crack. The first bolt is off a good stance and easy to get to. Nice face climbing .8 and .9 get you to the headwall block. Surmounting this is the crux with a good left hand knob and right hand sloping ramp. The last bolt is strenuous to clip and the step up to the anchor is hard. Wanted to take the route up another 20' but the rock wasn't good. Contrary to the name the rock isn't slippery.
