Pierced Nipple from the frontage road


Description 

As for the Dry Wall. On the frontage road, before one arrives at the Dry Wall, you almost immediately see the only tower like formation tucked away by itself. It is south facing and one hears the train and truck traffic on nearby I-80. Rock quality is chossy cobble, but apparently cleaning up.


Getting There 

I-80 to Ranch Exit in Echo Canyon after passing Coalville east bound. Drive along the frontage road continuing East and it will be the south facing tower route on the north side of the highway.
