Basalt face climbing between 10-30m. The unimproved rock is extremely chossy and lichenous, but lots of cleaning has been done to produce some quality face climbing on cool jugs, incuts and sidepulls. The majority of the routes are equipped with fixed hangers and chains, but a small minority of routes require various amounts of gear. The angle varies from slightly under vertical to very overhanging.
