The Ravens

The Ravens is a climbing area in Arizona's Pusch Ridge Wilderness, part of the Santa Catalina Ranger District of Coronado National Forest. The Forest Service manages the land, and the area falls within designated wilderness. The climbing here is centered on sport routes, with 20 sport routes and five trad routes among the 25 routes listed. The YDS grade range runs from 5.7 up to 5.13-, with a median of 5.11-. Several of the routes are close to each other, so it's easy to string together a day of climbing. Among the sport routes, Stint is a 5.10+ and Shenanigans is a 5.11-. The hardest listed is Little Birds at 5.13-, first climbed by Matt Martinez and Austin Sobotka in July 2019. Trad climbers can try Lightning Streaks, a 5.7 that was first climbed by Geoff Parker and Gary Axen in 1970. The Murray Wall, Orifice Wall and Southeast Face all sit about 0.1 mile away, and Canada Del Oro is about 0.6 mile off. For an overnight stay, Spencer Canyon campground is about 3.5 miles away.
