About The Fortress:

Distinct large block-like rock formation perched upon the ridge overlooking the Peralta Trail. Up to 10 trad/sport routes on the west and south faces. Generally good rock and breathtaking scenery. Approach: From the Peralta trailhead, take the Bluff Springs trail up about a mile to the unmarked left departure of the Cave Trail. Take it about another 1/2 mile up to the crag. All the trad lines are walk-offs: head left(N) to edge, then west down into small gully. At bottom follow the base of the wall south until you emerge at south face.
