Description
This area first started to see traffic back in the day and hasn't seen much love since. Much like the shrieking shack from the Harry Potter books, this area has one purpose and one purpose only, to allow those who crave to climb with little time to go wild due to the short approach. There are a few older established lines from Brent Kertzman, plus a few others. Lots of new route development possible and its right off the road!
Getting There
Park at the the Big Pine Trailhead, across the road for the Horsethief Campground entrance. Walk southeast (parallel with the road) along the front side of the first formation for about 100 yards. You'll begin to see the prominent isolated boulders. The isolated boulders is where past developers focused their attention.
