Description Suggest change

This is a large, roughly southeast-facing bowl of Wingate and Chinle, sitting underneath Meek's Mesa. The boundary with Capitol Reef National Park runs through the center of this bowl, no new bolts within the park (check google earth for details). Probably only 6 or fewer quality lines, and as of Summer 2012, only one has gone up.

Getting There Suggest change

20-30 minute approach. Find the Meek's Mesa trailhead (same as The Observatory), and head right at the Chinle until you can go no further.
