Description

Right of Lower Tier Wall on the west facing aspect of the Owl Cove Area near the mouth of the alcove is a great looking wall that starts at a huge ledge half way up the wall. There are 3 high quality routes here. You must use Dead Man Walking on Lower Asylum Wall or Red Shank on Rubble Wall as approach pitches to access the big ledge below Jail House Wall and these routes. It is also possible to locate rap anchors at the top of the cliff and rap in. The base of Jail House Wall has a comfortable ledge and a convenient belay/rappel anchor.

Getting There

Use the River Access for the Owl Cove Area or hike in from the west rim parking (30 mins).
