Wild Rose Country – 5.11a
Description:
The base is 20m up the bushy gully that separates Yardarm Bluff (on climber's right) from Horizon Wall (to the left). Start up on the jet black rock up steep face (10b/c). Jugs to pull onto a little rest ledge. Continue up a narrow prow feature (10a) to a bulge. Fantastic small crimps up face of bulge (10b/c) leads to lower angle rock and a slab romp up to the belay rings by a small fir tree.
