    About

    Paleomagnetism is a 5.11 YDS trad, 50 ft (15 m) located in Grand Junction > Grand Mesa > Land's End Area > Paleosol Wall. First ascent by Garhart and Walters, November 2012. Climb steep face and a less than tips flake (green C3) to a good finger lock. Layback up to a right-facing corner that widens from hands to 5" and tapers back down to thin hands. The bottom is thin and sporty, and the upper corner is cruiser with a lot of good stemming. Protection: This route is right of Ultramafic ~50 feet.
