Description 

This is the crag that is directly above the the main parking lot. It's sometimes overlooked in peoples' urgency to get to Penny Lane or Neat and Cool, but it's a good crag with some excellent climbs and cooler temperatures on the hottest days. Supervalue is particularly good!


Getting There 

From the south end of the parking lot, near the message board, take a short trail up to the base. There is also a trail that comes in from climber's right from Crag X.
