Climbed this on April 9, 2010. Good climb. Used some long slings. Took some long runs, but easy to set pro. Mostly nuts. Belay anchor at top---used tree with webbing already in place. Backed up with pro. View was incredible. Enjoyed belaying my two girls 12/14yrs. They really enjoyed this one for the view at the top. Great sunny day.

Due to a major traffic jam heading into the valley, we decided to stop by Knob Hill for some quick cragging. We were able to hit all 6 routes in the supertopo, and found them ALL to be quite enjoyable. And even though it was the height of the climbing season, we were the only party at the crag! Especially considering that the approach takes all of two minutes, this area is worth a visit.

Knob Hill is a great introduction to longer Yosemite 5.7 and 5.8 pitches.

*What is "Route Beta"?
It's climber slang for information or tips on a route as in, "what's the beta on that route?" As a service to fellow climbers we ask SuperTopo guidebook users to post tips and updates to this website if they have relevant information to share after a climb.
