Description
Tower that is obvious from many points in the basin. Several interesting routes lead to its cool summit. This area is not affected by annual peregrine closure.
Getting There
Formation is south of TR 261. Hike TR 261 for about 20 - 30 min.. After crossing a slab on the trail look for a left turn off 261, hike over to a creek bed and look for another creek on the far side. Follow this creek to another creek on the left, take this creek to a point of impass and look right for rock piles that lead to a long rock ledge and slabs that led up to the main formation. Allow 45 min.
