Traverse the same as solo mission till you begin to go up Made in Switzerland.  Instead of finnishing on made in switzerland, match in the thin crack then move right to two small crimps and a big sloppy gaston for your right hand.  Good footwork allows you to move to up to some better holds and on to an easy top out.  Crux is getting established on the crimps and sloppy gaston.

Rock Biter

Climb the right side of the upper wall. Named for the ancient Swiss Army sunglasses we found hanging on a tree at the base, which we left and are probably still there.

SDS on the same holds as Rock biter and climb straight up.  Good warm up for Rock Biter

Climbs the middle of the Upper Wall. Crimpy fun moves to a good and somewhat hidden jug to the right.

Start on the most left problem and traverse right through some good crimps and nice holds to the most right problem. The transition to follow the thin crack is the best part of this climb. Great counter pressure move with a crimp in left hand and right hand in crack. Go up from there.

This climbs the left side of the Upper Wall. Good crimps and a few moves about the same difficulty as the other problems to the right, but shorter with better jugs at the top.

Sds on a crimp and a sidepull. Move right to an intermediate, or go straight to a poor side pull. Fire for the top. Don't get bit.

The Upper Wall currently hosts 4 problems with room for variations. We have posted the 4 most straight forward ones and claimed FAs on them since we cleaned them, found no signs they had been climbed before this past spring, and pulled off gratuitous amounts of rock to make them more secure. Keep in mind that most of the rock is rotten in Duluth and one can never tell what might come off in one's hand.
