Description
WW2 is a gently overhanging amphitheater with short powerful routes. The rock isn't as solid as at WW1, so holds are prone to breaking. Only a few routes at WW2 are natural. The bulk of the routes have been manufactured or reinforced in some way- (you’ve been warned). World Wall 2 also features many climbs below the wall itself and on an outcrop to the left.
Getting There
Hike up the Little Si trail. Take a right at the Boulder Garden Loop. Switch back up for 15 minutes passing a smaller wall en route (Canopy Crags). At the sign directing Boulder Garden loop, continue straight through and down.
Old Trail- take a right earlier in what appears to be a trail amongst the giant sword ferns and piled debris. If you take this wandering path, it will take you to the top of the cliff. To get down to the climbing you would take the "trail" on the left, stepping over the large tree root and go down the hillside, traversing gently down and to the right to the wall. Unfortunately, this trail was mostly destroyed in the 2013 fire. The vegetation has been slow to return, so it's mostly been abandoned.
Newer Trail- If you go down the 4x4 trail a little more, past the old trail, you should see a little trail (ramp) in the hillside. Follow this path, it will switch back once to gain elevation, then it will gently descend the hillside down and to the right toward the wall.
