Access Issue: If you don't want to cause access issues please make it a point to be on your best behavior. Details

If you are coming up, note the following:

-There are no fires allowed anywhere, including the boulder basin & group campsites.
-Please carpool, parking is limited, so if you show up and there is nowhere reasonable for you to park, you must leave. (instead of parking somewhere unreasonable).
-Bring cash to park, lots of people showing up without cash. Even if you don't camp overnight, you still must pay for day parking.
-Don't climb boulders in/ around occupied camp sites (some say ask, personally I just go somewhere else).
-Spread out a bit.

Description

A nice circuit with a short approach.

Getting There

Midway between the gate and the Boulder basin campground, head due south a couple hundred yards to a large prominent pinnacle. The Warm Up Face and Megalomania are in the sandy notch next to this pinnacle. Moon Drops is 50 yards below/south of the pinnacle.
