Description
Getting There
Drive up SR 165 to mile marker 12 (now missing off post) and park in an informal lot next to the road. Cross the creek and walk uphill from the parking lot , trending a bit right to the ridge. Follow game trails, and a few cairns, in a long upward and right traverse. When one approaches the left side of the cliff, walk up the steep hill to the base of the rock.
Coming from Sandia Park (driving north on 536), you'll hang right onto 165 which quickly turns to dirt road. Took us 5.2 miles/45 minutes down dirt road to reach The Terrace wall towering above to the right. 5 minute approach. (Broken odometer? You'll pass Las Huertas campground, many bridges, and a cliff on the right with a built in metal walkway/staircase for hikers to enjoy. Can't miss it. Keep going...)
Saw many brave 2WD sedans make the bumpy treck down this road.
