Description

This formation is in front of , and slightly to the left of The Great Burrito. 3rd Ed. of Bartlett's Hidden Valley guide, in the suppliment, has a dozen climbs listed. Even though the formation is close to the campground, close to the trail, sunny so. facing, and everyone has looked at it before, no one really wanted to climb on it until reciently, for it isn't a very attractive formation, and the climbs are average , but a climb is a climb.
