Getting There

Coming from the Rustic Station in Bailey (right along Highway 285) take Wellington Lake/CR 68 east (it's the only way you can go) for 5.1 miles. At this point, you'll see a fork in the road with two signs. One sign has "EOS Mill" with an arrow pointing left. The road on the right continues as Wellington Lake Road and the left begins Echo Valley/EOS Mills/CR 70. Take the left road and continue for about 2 more miles. The road will merge. From here, go a hundred yards or so further, and take a right to the Miller Gulch Trailhead. Park here. This is a labeled location on Google Maps.

To get to the crag, walk back out to EOS Mill, and go left. Walk down the road about 500 feet, and then go right at a pullout spot, hiking generally uphill. You should see the crag fairly obviously through the trees. Expect about 10 minutes from the car to the boulders/crag.

The coordinates mark the main crag, and it sticks out pretty well, so it's hard to miss. The boulders surround the crag, mostly going to the South and to the West.

If you continue down the road a little farther, you'll see a large clearing with some boulders off to the left and a house on the right, this is the Backburn area.
