If you can see the suspended plank, you are at or near the rap station after finishing the last pitches of the Red Dihedral.

Cairn marking the rap after finishing the last pitches of the Red Dihedral. The rap is to the skier's left, roughly on the south face of the formation.

The Incredible Hulk during the fires - 5 September 2020.

as of 7/2019, there is no turn off sign to diverge towards Little Slide Canyon. however, the path diverges in between these two larger rocks, with this pine as a decent land marker if you're having trouble. Robinson Creek is easily crossed via felled tree
