Getting There 

This is the most accessible area on Queen Mountain. From the parking area at the roads end to the south, hike towards Queen Mountain's summit. As you approach the base of the south face the area will be seen high on the south face to the left of the summit but well below the skyline. Allow 20-30 minutes for the hike.
