Description Suggest change

This area is on the far left side of the Downtown area. You can identify it by a small bulge at 30 feet then a long black head wall above it. With many classics of Ten Sleep held in this area it also has some of the most potential for the upper canyon. So if you see a chunk of good looking rock..go ahead and bolt it (responsibly).

Getting There Suggest change

There is two different ways to get to the Downtown area. you can ether park at pullout 16 (the only pullout with a tree) and find the VERY faint trail that leads right up to the cigar or you can hike up the main mondo trail and traverse the cliff line trail straight to the downtown.
