rock climbing approach beta: zonerland
Here’s little preview on a climbing area that I know very little about, Zonerland in the Superstitions. Zonerland is located off the Peralta trail to the west, about 3/4 of the way to the Fremont Saddle. A large rock on the left side of the trail marks the location where you jump off Peralta and start making your way up the hill.
When you reach this rock, scramble up and around to the left of it (west) and look the hill and a little to the left…
The low point between the rock spires it what you want to head toward. There’s a few sets of rock cairns you can follow, but any path seems as good as another as long as you know the general direction to go. Once you hike up there you’re surrounded by many rock spires, most of them with at least one bolted line.
Lots of hard looking routes, lots of over-hanging arete lines, and lots of routes I have no clue what they’re rated. If you do make a trip out there, make sure to bring extra webbing and rap rings. Many of the routes don’t have rap bolts at the top…
