Description Suggest change

Long, west-facing crag on the east side of the canyon. The most visible walls from the outpost and surrounding (especially now, post-deforestation). Routes tend to be longer, with a few steep classics and tech masterpieces. Good bouldering, though it tends to be spreadout.

Getting There Suggest change

Park at the outpost and walk across the valley and uphill forever. The trail you choose will depend on the crag you want to approach. There is alternate parking for the Goat Cave/Sloping Joe/Undertow boulder up the road (North) from the outpost at the top of the switchbacks somewhat near the gate.
