Raspberry Wall is a climbing area in California's Inyo National Forest, within the White Mountain Ranger District. The Forest Service manages the land, and the wall sits in a cluster of climbing spots, with Oser Wall and Trailerpark both about a tenth of a mile away. The climbing here is sport-based, with one mixed route, and the grades run from 5.11- to 5.13. Capuchin Swing is the mixed route, and Nadine is the hardest, at 5.13. Skynet is a 5.11+ sport line, and Rubus Cube is a 5.12. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. A nearby weather station at Mammoth Lakes records typical July highs around 78°F with lows near 49°F, while winter highs stay around 41°F. That station sits about 260 feet lower than the wall, so temperatures on the rock run slightly cooler. Nearby options include Morgan Mine Road and Mount Julius Caesar, both about 2 miles away, and the Mosquito Flat Backpacker Campground roughly 5 miles off.
