Description 

South east facing wall sits just above the trail of the same name between Discovery wall and the Monolith. The left side of the wall has long routes that are bulgy at the bottom and topped with long faces above. To the right of the overhang and the point are some steep climbs that follow slashing zig-zag cracks. The rock quality is a bit suspect here, but you should not have to deal with crowds, just the curious hikers that will walk right passed the base of the route while you are climbing.

Getting There 

A few minutes after passing Discovery Wall on the Moses Springs trail you will round a point and end up walking along under a low crumbling white overhang. The routes are at either end of this overhang.
