Mt. Yale framed by Split Rock.

Description 

Big block, with a split in the back side of it, the rock is mostly good stuff, though if you enjoy smearing a lot, make sure your belayer wears a helmets, granite crystals DO come off.

Getting There 

In Buena Vista, cross the train tracks, then take the street NOT right after the tracks, but the next one, left, next to the video store, I believe. From there, continue on and drive for a ways... then take a right onto BLM land, just before the 2 tunnels, continue on this, past Elephant Rock on your left, it will be on your left, and very easy to see, ROADSIDE. (will post actually street names soon).
