Description Suggest change

Climbs listed here in this section lie to your left (driver's side) as you enter the Southfork Valley. These climbs are mostly North Facing, thus more regularly forming. For Lower Bench routes and other zones just past it, take the Hunter Creek Road that cuts off left from main Southfork Road. 

Getting There Suggest change

Follow directions out of Cody for the Southfork Highway Route 291 which will branch off left up a hill before heading up Highway 14 to Buffalo Bill State Park and East Entrance to Yellowstone NP.
