Access Issue: Regarding Local Ethics
Details
If you use chalk on the rock, brush it off when you are done. If you use tick marks, brush them off when you are done. Wipe your feet off prior to each climbing attempt. Excess chalk and any dirt, leaves, or mud can polish holds over time. Do not drag your pad from one climb to the next (in order to minimize erosion). And most importantly, Leave No Trace. Pick up your trash and place it in the trash cans at the trail head.
Description
This area has several problems downhill from the main cliff of Rattlesnake Point.
Getting There
The easiest access is to park at the Solar Slabs Parking and hike the Rock City Trail to the shelter, then take a left onto the Rattlesnake Trail. The cliff is about 300 yards down this trail.
