Climbing Routes

Static Point is a large granite buttress with a lot of friction climbing on slab, and it’s located north of Sultan in a remote logging area. Expect some long run-outs, crack systems, wet weather, and multiple pitches. Overnight camping is not allowed in the Spada Lake watershed, and also be sure to not litter here. To get to the buttress, go north onto Sultan Basin Road off Highway 2 and follow it for about 13 miles to the entrance of Spada Lake Basin. You’ll want to register at a turn-off near the gate entrance. Continue straight ahead on the main road and cross over the South Fork Sultan River. Just after the bridge on the right, there is a narrow road that has been blocked off. You’ll most likely have to park at a pull-off and hike 1.6 miles to a rocky stream gully. The Pillar is located a ways to the right of Tombstone Ledge with a 40 meter high detached flake. Spencer’s Spaceport is just right of the ‘Lost Charms’ tree and up a little ways. A Discover Pass is required and it can be picked up at a licensed dealer, or you can purchase it online at http://www.discoverpass.wa.gov/.
