Description

This is a combination of two rock ridge systems (East Ridge and West Ridge) divided by Black Creek Road.

The East Ridge is steep and short. Providing a fun 300 foot vertical gain scramble. Difficulty could be up to Easy 5th class, but the path of least resistance on rock is 3rd class.

The West Ridge is longer and more of a steep hike. The rock sections are spread apart, but epic in views and adventure. Climbing difficulty is custom, but 4th class in several rock sections.

The East Ridge and West Ridge combined with Three Point Mountain provides 2000 foot vertical gain in under 5 miles. Excellent training for bigger objectives.

Loose rocks abound, be careful!!!

I saw an out of character quartz rock on one of the rock towers. This leads me to think I’m not the first to adventure here.
