Description Suggest change

The unmistakable large bluff located in front of you as you drive down the switchbacks.
There is not bolted climbing on this wall due to access/NPS, but there is one documented traditional climb on the sandstone pillar.

Getting There Suggest change

As you drive into the Roark Valley bluffline, find a suitable/legal parking area.

From here ford the river at a logical crossing point (personally used the small natural dam downriver a small ways past the pillar)
From here locate a faint trail that winds itself back up the backside of the bluff.
Navigate your way to the obvious pillar.
