Description

A continuous section of cliff band wrapping around from the southern end of Black Rocks to the first of several west facing portions of Black Rocks. Climbs range in length from short easy 20-35 ft routes on the southerly facing section of the cliff to longer moderates on the west facing portion of the cliff.

Getting There

From the main Black Rock overlook trail, approach the cliff face and take a faint trail heading south just back from the cliff face. Follow this faint trail for 50-100 yards to the southern end of the cliff and hug the cliff side as you descend into and navigate the scree field.
