This route has access issues. Please read the note available on the Fern Canyon page.

Description 

This is a nice and easy 450ft romp on excellent rock with a comparatively easy approach.

The East Face is easily seen on the right side of the Fern Canyon Trail just a few yards after the North Shanahan trail intersects it.

The face has a lower angle than other East faces on the Flatirons and makes for a great solo adventure if comfortable with the exposure and competent enough to do so...

Start at the bottom of the face and pick the path of least resistance.

From the summit move south and downclimb the summit block (15ft 5.2) From there hike West onto hiking territory and the trail.

I thought this would be a nice solo scramble... NO it really wasn't.The rock was really dirty and spooky friction. Perhaps I was off route but I was more or less on the north side of the east face.
