Crawdad Canyon

The route list

Every bolted line in the canyon — 207 routes across 21 walls, from 5.2 slabs to 5.13a. Transcribed from the park's own printed climbing guide, so the names, grades and star ratings are the ones on the brass plaques at the base of each climb.

All climbers bring their own gear. Nothing is rented or sold at the property. The routes are bolted, so you do not place protection — but you need your own rope, harness, shoes and quickdraws. Download the printed guide and canyon map (PDF) →

Park rules

  • A liability form must be on file for every climber — sign it online before you arrive to save time at the gate.
  • All climbers must sign in at the front desk. No exceptions.
  • Climbers under 18 need a parent or guardian's signature on the liability form, and a parent present to sign it.
  • No free soloing, rope soloing or bouldering anywhere in the park.
  • No traditional climbing — the park is bolted sport only.
  • Lead climbers must clip every bolt on the route.
  • Do not add or remove any fixed equipment on the routes.
  • A stick clip is recommended where the first bolt hanger is painted yellow.
  • No dogs in the canyon — a kennel is in the upper parking lot. ADA service animals excepted.
  • Vandalism means a lifetime ban from the park and criminal charges.
  • No profanity.
