Access Issue: Neighborhood Parking Details

Please be mindful of the neighbors on Big Rock Lake Road. Do not park along the road, generate excessive noise in the parking lot or at the cliff, or camp out. If the parking is full, use the spot at the intersection of Preston McDaniel and Nine Times Roads. This is a neighborhood, drive slow and be courteous. Violating one of these rules is an easy way to get the cliff shutdown for everyone.

Description

This is a lower angled slab that has some sport routes. A great location for beginners to learn to lead or to warmup. This was first developed by Jared Hancock and Brad Caldwell as a top rope site. A top rope anchor was added by them and most of the routes were TR'ed on the right side in the 5.4-5.6 range. The area name comes from their daughters names. With permission, the top rope routes were turned into beginner lead routes. Additional routes were added to the left in the slightly harder range.

Getting There

Take the right fork from the Main Parking area. When you get to the X-Wall turn left. Continue past the Arch Wall and go up the hand line. The next cliff on the right you come to is the Hominid Wall.
