Description 

Follow the trail to the south of the Buckeye Flats road that leads down to the river. For the base of the route, go down the stairs to the far south end of the "cave boulder" to the man-made stone lookout tower overlooking the river boulders. Stand on the stone wall to start (running mantle move woohoo!).

Best done in the early morning during tourist season to avoid the crowds.

Protection 

To get to the rap rings, hop up and mantle and/or use the tree branches to get to the top of the "cave boulder" from the north-west end. Please use your own draws for top ropes to save wear on the fixed rings.
