Description 

Two large boulders that form an "amphitheatre" just uphill from The Pebble Wall and North Rocks. The top of the left side boulder is a popular party spot. The right side holds a classic John Gill problem, The Gill Direct, and the sporty 1967 Pat Ament problem the Direct Route. The left side has several sporty old highballs facing south and the classic Mongolian Cosmonaut in a small notch up and left.


Getting There 

Park as for Monkey Traverse on the left at the main Crown Rock parking area 1.2 miles up the road from the Ranger kiosk. Cross the road and walk uphill to the north on the Flagstaff Trail. Depart the Flagstaff Trail at the first hairpin turn and head off right into the woods towards the Pebble Wall.
