Description
I labeled this the South Buttress, but if anyone knows a different name, please let me know. This is basically the rock formation that lies to the south of the Pinnacle. There are a couple traditional routes on the east face of this buttress, and there is some opportunity for bolted routes on the east and north faces. The rock type and quality is similar to other rock low in the canyon, with some solid granite but also some loose and decomposing granite.
Getting There
Park just below the east face (from here you can look up and see the Sun Slabs on the east face of the Pinnacle). Cross over the gated bridge and head straight up to the South Buttress. Approach will only take about 10 minutes.
