The Amphitheater
About The Amphitheater:
12-15' tall boulder right under the west face of Moby Dick, shaped like a bent breadloaf. South side is slabby and most lines are polished. Many routes and even more variations from 5.8 - 5.11 on that side. Both aretes are great problems and the back side's steeper face makes for some fun balancing acts as well. Downclimb the East end using the 5.4 flake/undercling. |
