Real sport climbing for the masses. Positive arête grappling action with a grip of pockets.  A gem in a junkyard.

This would make John Burcham proud.  Mantle a tombstone into a minefield of pockets.  Fun arete partying that doesn’t ask you to buy gas.

Funk fingers with an intro to trash pockets into an awkward arête and rooftop face climbing.

Busted asymmetric twin cracks to gape worthy arête dancing.  Don’t forget your selfie stick.

Hillbilly roof leads to all star finger corner. Pocket of the year contest when you get bored.  Almost as good as the Mace. Back clean below the roof or punch yourself in the head.

That girl is outside the kwiky mart.  Baller finger stemming past bulges to locker laybacking.  Was she watching?

Stinky slot burping on the way to the car door handle store.  Two rounds of bottom shelf grandpa fists for everyone, on the house.

Mini splitter corner  below a mighty chockstone.  Hot step right to bolted gym holds. More fun than going to a water park with your cousins.

Fun hero finger corner to trash can stemming.  Stay heads up as the budget rock ruins the sweet features, don't fill the casket.

How do you get elected mayor of a trash pile like this? Give the people what they want.  What do the people want? Steep Cro-mag pockets with rock bottom pricing.  Every idiot wants to get their picture taken with this guy.

Why would you say that, that’s fucked up?  Yeah well…  Steep face climbing with micro widget pro. Post sport climbing at its finest. If you hate yourself continue up the garbage pail finale to the Empty Casket anchor. If your name isn’t Randy Ropedrag and you have runners, cut right to Hands Down, its much less junky.

Stop huffing glue and get hooked on crack.  Clean thin hands to romper hands and fingers.

Ghost Town is a mini crag tucked away in the folds of the San Francisco Peaks that features crisp cracks and uniquely featured sport climbs. The setting in the Schultz burn area means that the views steal the show. Wild flowers abound in summer, adding to the scenic ambiance. The cliff is at an elevation of 9200 feet and faces SW, so expect lots of sun, cloudy days are ideal. During monsoons, there is no shelter from rains, but the rock dries very quickly. However, the approach is long, the lines are short and the Tuff rock makes me think that the Oak Creek Overlook had a one night stand with Sedona choss. These factors combine to make a scrappy crag that will appeal to those who appreciate beautiful settings, loath crowded crags, and perfect rock isn’t a requirement to enjoying climbing. Enjoy, or not. Whatever.
