If you park in the Gladie Learning Center, you can see the top of "Diamond in the Crack" of Jewel Pinnacle. Just head down the road to the right, follow the river till it intersects the creek with a large boulder, cross the river and you should find a trail on the other side. Head up hill trying to go left and will pass a large boulder (5 mins from river) and keep heading uphill.

This is the boulder you'll pass, after you started heading left uphill after you crossed the river. A sure sign of the correct direction.
Jewel pinnacle, the dihedrals of Diamond in the Crack are now easily seen as the large tree that was at the base recently came down
