Description 

Home to a few harder routes, including one of the few double-bolted anchors. Generally occupied.

Getting There 

1) follow blue/yellow blazes past Breakfast Wall and Very Blocky Wall; join up with descent trail (make right) and head to small clearing. To your left is another blazed trail heading towards cliff; go right at fork (left is access trail to top). Just past the "closed for environmental studies" roped-off area is the place you want.
2) Exit upper parking lot left, go through meadow and past stream, to large clearing. Make left on carriage road, follow to smaller clearing. Ahead right, you'll see a blazed trail heading towards the cliff; make right at fork (left is access trail to top of cliff). Follow directions above from there.
