GETTING THERE
- Travel East along Mt Baker Hwy 542. Shortly after passing the Washington State DOT Maintenance Shed, turn left onto NF-32 for the Shuksan Picnic Area. Follow NF-32 for roughly 500'. The crag is located along the road. Park in front of the Jerry Bourn trailhead or roadside.
Climbing Area & Routes
- MountainProject.com has the best route info and photos for the crag
- A climbers trail follows around the East side of the crag and offers top rope access for all routes. Depending on your risk tolerance, some routes will require a short rappel to reach the anchor.
- This area doesn't see a lot of traffic so inspect all fixed lines, rope anchors, and rock before committing.
Notes
- NF-32 (aka Hannegan Pass Road) is part of the Salmon Ridge Sno-Park system. The road may be closed during the grooming season 12/1-3/31 and require a Sno-Park Permit. A sign is typically posted at Shuksan Picnic Area asking drivers not to drive on the groomed road. The crag is a 5 minute walk from the Shuksan Picnic Area.
