Description 

This north - south running clandestine corridor, filled with huge nolina plants, is formed by Roundup Rock on the east and a nameless crag on the west. The nameless crag is east of Thrutcher Dome. Large boulders on the south and north ends obfuscate the view into the corridor. There are several excellent crack climbs that make the circuitous approach into the corridor worth the time involved.

This area is also described as the Snake Pit (pg. 307) in Randy's '92 guidebook.


Getting There 

One approach is to enter the aptly named Prickly Pear Canyon flanked by Thrutcher Dome on the east and the nameless crag on the west. Walk a few hundred feet north towards the base of a cactus covered hill. At the base of the hill are some large boulders on your left and a very narrow chimney / corridor on your right that leads into Butler Corridor.
