Description
This fun sport route is just to the right of Goodro's Wall. From the Storm Mountain parking lot, cross the bridge and turn left. At the Y in the trail, branch right and then take one of the dirt paths up the slope from the first picnic table. You will need to scramble up a short 4th class gully to the belay ledge. WARNING: Be sure you can climb or lower off this gully before going up, it can get kind of sketchy coming back down. It's a bit easier if you go left.
For the climb, follow seven bolts to the anchors up the face to the right (the wall is east facing). Plenty of foot and hand holds but seems pretty challanging for 5.6. This spot queues up quickly on the weekend so get there early. Shaded most of the day.
Protection
Route consists of 7 bolts and two chains for an anchor. Anchor is placed above a small ledge. Route is approximately 80 feet from belay point to anchor. Please use your own lockers or QDs for the top anchor and rap down at the end to reduce wear on the chains. Bring a few medium to small cams to set up a belay anchor.
