Description
What looks like a giant north and east facing boulder protruding out of the hillside offers several climbs in the 5.10 to 5.11 range. There are a couple of moderate cracks here in addition to the classic 5.11 "The Wizard." It's bolted now, but the FA was done on gear.
You can hike around back to set TR's, but be careful getting to some of the anchors as you will right on the cliff edge.
A good place to escape the heat, but it can be frigidly cold when other crags are hot.
Getting There
From the town of lone pine follow whitney portal road and make a right onto movie rd. Follow movie road for 2.8 miles where there is a right turn with the square oz formation is visible. Follow this road over some rock obstacles for just under a mile.
