Grand Ledge has long been known For its abundance of top rope routes.
With the growing interest in bouldering many of the old problems are
being re-visited, exhausting the next generation of climbers.
Please send us your information on the existing and new routes, we will
be updating this page regularly. Keep in mind that your new route may
have been done before (may have a name and rating already).
Also
do not attempt the exsting top rope routes as highball boulder problems!
This practice is not only unsafe, but rude! Since the top rope are is
well established this will create a hazard for you and others. It is
not impossible to realize a rope to be dropped while you are accending,
or you could get knocked off by a swinging roped climber. The tops of
teh cliff is also composed of a much softer and fragile rock. It could
break at any time...not a good thing to happen at 30+ feet off the deck!
The tope rope are is crowded enough! adding the wait for a free solo
accent is rude.
Remember that the top of the cliff is fragile and dirty, to avoid erosion
down climb or traverse if possible. ALWAYS have a spotter, the
stone here can be fragile and break unexpectedly. The information below
is merely for reference. We understand that many of these problems have
probably been done dozens of times, but not documented. The following
list is in no way meant to step on anyone's toes, our goal is to give
other climbers a point of reference. If you have first accent or route
information please send it to us.
