A three pitch 5.6 sport route of an andesite pinnacle of pretty good rock on a broad steep nose with some airy exposure located a very short walk from highway 20.
Activity Notes
This is a multi-pitch climb in a pretty location. Rock shoes are strongly recommended but not required if the participant really prefers to use approach shoes. We will carpool to the trailhead (assuming you feel comfortable doing that). Divide up the ropes and gear and do a short hike to the start of the climb. It has three pitches of rock to a small summit. We will rappel to a midpoint, then a second rappel to the forest floor, hike out and drive home the same day. Carpool location: leave carpool at 730 AM.
