Beautiful wooded campsites, free clean bathrooms and hot showers, quiet privacy, internet access, public telephone, convenience store and reasonable rates [$14 per night], combine to draw climbers back to the Kamp again and again. "Lost rocks has quite a few of these classic dynos. The dyno starts with both hands matched on the hold the right hand is on. It is a slightly downward sloping completely flat hold. No lip. When you pull on, the angle is just steep enough to make the throw seem awkward and the swing huge! The problem is not overly hard, just overly classic :)" - Roughster Pets are encouraged to bring their people to Kamp Klamath.
