Description
This is the interesting looking spire, seen across the river near the Hwy 140/120 junction.
Getting There
Park at the lot at the 140/120 junction, and cross the river. This can only be done during times of very low water.
For the best crossing, park on the river side of the road just down the river past Pulpit rock.
Walk up stream little, and cross the river little west from formation. On most fall days there, you can just step from boulder to boulder. Walk by river east until you cross old wash going up on east side of of Pulpit rock. This is easiest way.
