Description 

This is the large , slabby cliff at the east end of the town of El Portal.
This area lies outside the park entrance.
Several moderate routes are found here and it can be a nice escape from the Valley on cold days.


Getting There 

Park in a turn out below the cliff, then follow a loose stream bed to the base.

18-October-2008: Right Side (5.7) at Parkline Slab. Kind of nasty, with moss, choss, loose rock, etc. Avoid unless you want an 'adventure'.<br /><br />We did it in 4 pitches, and rapped off the pine tree at the top to two bolted rap stations with double 60m ropes.
