Summary
Sandstone
A ship-shaped piece of dark red sandstone in the Paradise canyon. Vertical to very steep climbing on interesting features on mostly solid rock in a beautiful setting.
Description
Brittle when wet
Morning sun
South East
Routes are rather short and - with some exceptions - athletic. Some of the grades should probably be revised as the holds errode slowly and climbs get harder - so don't be surprised if a 5.10c is not the warm-up you expected.
Approach
Flat
20-30 min
From the trailhead of Chuckawalla follow the obvious dirt trail along the climbing area Chuckawalla for about 20 minutes. You will see Turtle Wall to your left. There is a sign "Climbing Access", follow the small trail to the wall.
Ethic
Please check the bolts when climbing at Turtle Wall - the sandstone is not super solid and most of the bolts are (still) expansion bolts.
