Most of the Sheridan Hills crag is now open again following slip damage. Hidden Cirque and Western Wall cliffs remain CLOSED until further notice. Many thanks to the landowners for making this possible.

Amazing that such a steep climb goes at grade 18, but the grade is bona fide, 8 bolts that pop
up just where you need them. A DBC belay just below the very exposed finish, gives those who
don’t feel like doing the crux move with its slung bollard for pro, a chance to bail. DBC belay.
