Description 

Another zero approach cliff that tends to be popular due to the plethora of great climbs. North-east or east facing this makes a great afternoon/evening climbing location. Classics here include Rye Crisp and Wheat Thin.


Getting There 

Take Emery Canyon road North til you reach the signed Elephant Rock parking lot.

Wheat Thin 5.7  ID : City of Rocks : Elephant Rock
This beautiful route climbs the thin flake feature right of Rye Crisp. It is easier than it looks, but just as high quality.Wander up the easy flake system until it steepens. Jam and face climb up this wonderful feature until you are back on 3rd class ground. Bring a 70 meter or 2 60 meter ropes to rap any of a number of fixed anchors....[more]
