Obed Clear Creek Access Question?

Wondering how to access Little Clear Creek area of the Obed. I know you head down the trail by the bathrooms at the bridge and I'm assuming you cross the creek at some point. Is there a marker? Thanks in advance.

You got it. Park across from the bathrooms, walk in parallel to Clear Creek for a short distance, then break right to parallel Little Clear Creek. After the crossing, head right until the trail heads uphill. Should dump you out at the Cornerstone block (a couple of 10s and a 7, and some harder stuff). The approach only takes a few minutes.

Check out the guidebook (The Obed: a climbers guide to the wild and scenic).

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
