Description
A smaller cliff downstream of New Diversions sporting some good routes including Cramming, Tips, and Stubs.
Getting There
From Meyers 1986: "The Upper Routes (Weird Scenes...Agent Orange) are approached from above. Park at the Owl Roof turnout on highway 120. Locate the B-1 marker beside the road and hike down to the edge of the cliff. Bring one rope for the rappel approach and one rope with which to climb out.
The other routes are approached from Hwy 140, starting from a gravel parking area... 1.5 miles down west of the Hwy 120/140 junction... One [main climber's trail] goes straight up to Tips."
Look for a grassy area next to a house sized boulder. Park at the pullout for Cascade falls and walk up the highway past a couple of curves to find the large boulder. Walk past the boulder and look for an small rock retaining wall with a couple of steps. Hike uphill from there. This is how you access the Tips side of the cliff. Look out for poison oak!
You can also park across the highway from the boulder, but this parking option is small.
The best way to get to Cramming is to take the trail to Tips and walk the base from there.
