Climbing on East Cottage Dome.
Photo by Blitzo.



Description 

The Cottage Domes are the next domes to the northeast of DAFF.
East Cottage Dome is the most popular and offers splendid, steep knob climbing.


Getting There 

Park in a dirt pullout 2.7 miles west of Tuolumne store.
Hike up and slightly left, past a creek bed, then up some slabs to the southwest summit of East Cottage Dome. Go right, stay high on the slabs below the summit. Traverse around to the face.
For more complete information, get "Rock Climbing Tuolumne Meadows" by Don Reid and Chris Falkenstein.
