BETA PHOTO: The Worst Error-Elephant Rock. Photo by Blitzo.
Description
Elephant Rock is a great shady destination similar to the Rostrum. The lower reaches are home to some awesome climbs such as Hotline, Pink Dream, and Fatal Mistake, whereas the upper wall (the Killer Pillar -- approached via HW 41) has a few wild sport climbs. Fatal Mistake is the insanely good-looking splitter visible from the road, and commonly confused to be Hotline (also clearly visible from the road if one knows what to look for).
Getting There
From the intersection of HW 120 and 140, head just over 2 miles west on 140. Park at the long, paved pullout by the stone wall (commonly used to approach Cookie Cliff). Descend down to the river and cross by boulder-hopping and pick up a trail up to the base of the wall. You may end up doing a bit of bushwacking as this trail is difficult to locate on the way up. In any case, be careful of Poison Oak.
