Location Suggest change

While this crag is technically part of the far NW end of Sand Gulch, the best approach begins from the parking lot at The Bank Campground. From this lot, hike NW on the left road (rather than taking the right road fork into The Bank canyon) for ~20 minutes to a fork. Follow the left fork into the canyon, near the left end of the Dead Colt Wall. Bushwhack up to the cliff.
