Description

A collection of harder routes are scattered on both the north and south sides of the canyon with a couple of easier lines.

Getting There

This is the first area one encounters after the wash and below the main slot canyon. The routes are bit spread out compared to the other sections in the canyon. The entry is marked by the hill on the left (south) side rising to form towers. There is often an "air-conditioner" effect from the cool canyon above around this area, as well.
The trail to Book of Friends and Lucky Goes to the Creamery cuts right as the walls steepen.
