Description Suggest change

NW facing white rock with grey bands seen from the Molino Overlook parking circle. It is a short distance SW along the ridge from where the trail to the Ruins meets the ridgeline.

If anybody knows the "established name" for the rock or has a better idea, let me know.

Getting There Suggest change

Park as for the Ruins at the Molino Overlook (MP 4.7) and start hiking on the trail to the Ruins. Just before the last steep section the trail dips down slightly at a small drainage with a tree. From here it is an easy diagonal up and right to the base of the rock, following terraces and deer trails. About 20 min.

NOTE: During periods of high water this crag may be difficult to access.
