BETA PHOTO: Little Hunk West Face


Description 

Little Hunk despite it's name is a rather large formation that's located opposite Echo Rock's East Face. Although not very far from the road it tends to see much less traffic compared to the Echo Cove and Echo Rock areas.

The rock here varies some in quality with the west face having generally light-colored grainy rock while much of the east face is sprinkled with a nice patina which lends itself to climbing.


Getting There 

From the large gravel lot north of Echo Tee follow a well-marked trail east past the south face of Echo Cove and past the south end of Echo Rock into an open area where the Little Hunk formation will come into view. Continue northeast on the obvious trail which leads to the base of the west face or continue around the north end to reach the east face. Approach time is about 10-15 minutes from the car.
