Description

# Overview C-section is a nice long wall with a great spread of warm-ups and challenging routes for sport climbers. The wall faces south-west, so it will be shaded until about noon. # Access The access trails to this area are not on Google Maps or the park maps. An incomplete mapping of the trail is available [on OpenStreetMaps](https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/1278936491), however. ## From East entrance Park at the last/main parking lot (Canyon Point). Take Lake Gulch Trail until it crosses the river, then turn left onto Inner Canyon Trail. At the T, keep right onto Rimrock Trail. You should see a turnoff with a sign labelled "Climber's Access." If you go through the 2 switchbacks or reach the top of the canyon, you've gone too far on Rimrock trail. Follow the climber's access trail to the wall. ## From West entrance Park at the most south parking lot (Falls lot) and start heading south (right) on Creek Bottom Trail. Go past the waterfall, then there should be a way to cross the creek. Take that, then you might have to retrace north a bit, but this will run into the Climber's Access trail mentioned above. Keep left towards the crag (a right will take you back to Rimrock trail).
