JY Crag
Description:
"J-Y Crag is a popular spot with good climbing and a short approach. The gold-colored rock has a glacial sheen to it with sharp, positive edges allowing progress, keeping the grades at a consistent level. The majority of the routes are primarily bolt protected but most all require some gear." - straight from the Leavenworth Guidebook by Viktor Kramar
Directions:
View on MapComing in from town on Icicle Road, after mile marker 7 (before 8), with the 8-mile campground on your left, the trail & rock are on your right. Road side parking, no lot. Start with a 25-30ft. steep section that quickly forks, take a right, bringing you into a "meadow" and below some boulders, cross over the log on your left, follow the cairn up top towards the crag.
