Directions for finding The Camel and Teaching Rock: From the Bear Gulch Parking Lot, start at Moses Spring trailhead. Hike 0.1 mi, turn right onto High Peaks trail, hike 0.3 mi, then left on the Rim Trail. Follow Rim Trail approx 0.2 mi to The Camel. Side trail shoots off to the left (25 yards) for an easy walk up to the top of the camel hump, aka Teaching Rock. You will see Teaching Rock easily from the trail.
