Triangle Rock

Description 

This is a small crag about 80 ft tall lying about 400 ft SE of Gollum's Arch Rock. It has a handful of routes, at least two of which are pleasant. While certainly not a destination crag, it can be combined with routes on Twin Owls, Gollum's Arch Rock, and/or Rocks One through Six for a pleasant outing of short routing. The NW & SW faces hold the routes.

Descend the crag by scrambling down to the SE & circling back uphill to your packs.

Getting There 

From the current Twin Owls parking lot, it is quite a short approach, taking probably 15 minutes or so. There are at least 2 ways to access this crag based upon the paths worn here. Both start heading E on the Gem Lake Trail.

You can ascend worn, switchbacked social trails from below the crag perhaps 100 yards E of Upper Twin Owls/Gollum's Arch Rock.

You can also approach it via the Upper Twin Owls/Gollum's Arch Rock access trail off the Gem Lake Trail/Black Canyon Trail. Go up the switchbacks to below Hen & Chickens where the trail goes off to Gollum's Arch Rock. Where the trail starts uphill on log-reinforced steps, continue contouring about 200 yards to the triangular appearing rock. Do not mistake it for a small crag with water grooves on its W face (lying immediately SE of Gollum's Arch Rock) with a mixed line with 3 bolts on its S face.
