A little over an hour drive brings you up highway 2 to the small sleepy town of Index and the towering granite walls that hang above the town in the gorgeous Skykomish River Valley. This place is like a little Yosemite with easily accessed routes of solid beautiful granite with routes anywhere from 1 to 12 pitches in length. If it weren’t for the traffic on highway 2 and the hourly train that rolls by you might just feel like you were in the middle of nowhere. All the routes here are trad and many but not all have bolted anchors.

Parking available near trails with access to climbing area
