Description

Long ago a huge stone wedge broke off from the main cliff creating the right facing dihedral next to this route. The fallen wedge landed upright and, until recently, formed a free standing tower. It has since been toppled and now resides in pieces in or near the Big river. The remaining dihedral provides a place to start this route and a chance to practice stemming. The crux is higher up where a hand jam and a finger crack just above it will help you reach the anchors.About the name... The Guantanamo Bay Detention Camp is a U S military prison on the Southeast coast of Cuba where currently 40 prisoners of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are being held indefinitely.
