Description 

This is know as the ultimate hard crack destination of Olkahoma. Full length lines with difficult cruxes like on both sides of this unique formation, with it's signature boulder formation on top.


Getting There 

Go to the Sunset Parking lot in the Wichita Mts Wildlife Refuge. Crab Eyes is about 2 mile hike, take the trail across the second stream, and take your first trail opportunity to go right and over the little ridge. As soon as you crest it, look southwest, and you should see the Crab Eyes.
