New Left-to-Right Route Sort
Description Suggestion
This is the secluded east-facing end of the crescent moon-shaped band of cliffs that form, in the southern half, the "Planet of the Apes", and in the northern half, "Pangaea". The walls are exceptional for their rock quality and height. There is something for everyone here! 7s to 13s, with both trad and sport routes. Even more exciting are the many fine lines awaiting development. This area is being defined as the cliffs and towers between the end of "The Planet of the Apes" at the shady, double-roofed and red clay spot, and the point or end of the cove where the "Dark Continent Area" begins.
Pangea is divided in three zones so far. As you head north along the base, you will pass minor walls and towers (the Battlements, home to only one route so far) before reaching an imposing buttress, the Celestial Keep (identified by red walls and a massive curving blade of rock 100' up). On its north end sits a small guard tower, the Star Gate Tower (home to the Lost Portal). A bit more more talus hopping gets you to the second large buttress, the Shadow Keep (slightly shorter, more red walls, a jagged skyline, and a massive dihedral), and its own guard tower, the Dark Tower. Just past the entrance to this tower you will find a chossy gully (with a couple rebar pieces which mark the bottom of the rappel route from the rim. Don't try to climb out of this gully without a fixed line, ascenders, and a general lack of regard for your well being.
