Vogel Canyon
26 routes and 18 boulder problems at 5 crags. "Vogel Canyon" is the catalogue's own grouping — a town, a canyon or a corridor, whichever climbers actually say.
Which way a wall faces is known for 4 of these 5; the rest say nothing rather than guess. Sun and shade by season ranks the ones we know.
