Description 

The Moon Wall is one of the less traveled areas at the Lower Meadow, but it's home to a few good trad and sport lines.

Getting There 

From the dirt road used to approach the lower meadow, continue walking until you see the gigantic overhang where The Greatest Show and Puppy Chow are located.

Continue along the cliff line to access all Moon Wall climbs.
