Looking for a true alpine multi-pitch adventure without the grueling, multi-day approach? Look no further than Slick Rock, McCall’s premier granite monolith. Rising 1,200 feet above the rushing waters of Lick Creek, Slick Rock offers a world-class, Grade II multi-pitch climbing experience right in McCalls’s backyard.

Whether you are looking to step up your multi-pitch skills, master the art of friction slab, or simply spend a day high above the Lick Creek, Slick Rock delivers an unforgettable, full-day big wall feel without the logistical headache.

Why You’ll Love It

• A True Multi-Pitch Adventure (Grade II): Enjoy a sustained, multi-hour vertical journey. You get the authentic exposure and rhythm of a multi-pitch climb, requiring efficient rope management and teamwork, all while being perfectly manageable in a single day.

• World-Class Granite, Minimal Approach:  Slick Rock boasts a short, scenic 20-minute approach. You get maximum time on the rock and a comfortable return to McCall by dinner.

• The Ultimate Classroom: The gentle, low-to-moderate angle of the wall makes it the ultimate playground for learning. It’s the perfect place to build confidence on high-alpine terrain, master multi-pitch transitions, and trust your footwear on pristine, glaciated slab.
