The Throne

Kristin on Rocket Pocket

Description 

This is a popular toproping area, as there is easy access to the top. There are numerous easier lines, so it is also a popular area for beginning leaders. The harder lines tend to be face climbs.

There is a mix of sun and shade, so all seasons can be good. The rock is also generally great.

Getting There 

This is the hill in the valley that is surrounded on all sides by steep walls. Either 1: take the Dog Walkdown on the West Main Bluff, following it to the Chickenhead Wall on the East Main Bluff or, 2: take the trail at the end of the driveway, heading to the Chickenhead Wall from above as described in the East Main Bluff description.

From the Chickenhead wall, take the trail heading towards the Throne in the valley.
