Crack immediately when you turn the corner of the west-wall. Short bouldering problem with sadly boring moves. Lots of ways to cheat and not use the crack. Worth doing but nothing interesting here.

Start low and left, move up on small ledges, traverse right up high to black hole.

AKA Ohio's Longest, Hardest Climb 

  This is a traverse across the entire West Wall. The route has only seen one confirmed ascent since it was established in 2009.   The crux is in the woods, so best to start there.    Expect to move up and down often just to find a better route. Bring chalk.

Follow crimps and crimpy slopers up and right to the first bolt, continue past to the top past one more bolt on jugs to the lip of the bridge.

Mostly crimpy holds, but there's a nice large square brick shortly after the first clip and an odd I shaped brick right before the last move that are nice and juggy. The top cap of the wall has 2 great holds to finish on as you transition to a top out or the fence to set an anchor. Some of the lower holds are a bit polished, but after after the first few feet they're good and rough.

The route is pretty straightforward with good feet and decent jugs, pinches, and slots. It is tho hard to see holds from the ground and while climbing.

NOTE This area is in development and would love it if you added your routes to it! If your climb here often, please drop a route on the page so that we can all find and try it. Please use the "pillar" and "fence section" terminology for locating routes on this wall. 

  Opposite side of the East wall. This wall is long, straight, has one buttress in it, and continues into The Woods Wall. The wall is mainly a crimpy 5.9 at all locations, you can set up a top-rope along the entirety of the wall using the fence at the top. 

  FINDING ROUTES:

  Routes and problems on this wall and the Woods-Wall are located by "pillars" and "fence-sections".    Pillars are the large columns that are at the top of the wall, running along the fence, and fence-sections are the smaller, sections of the fence, identified by the metal parts that stick out to the very edge of the wall (pictured in the photo).
