Description 

The base of the Great White Throne has some of the best cragging in the main canyon, covering from Red Arch Mt, to Weeping Rock.


Getting There 

Park at or get of the shuttle at the grotto and head up the trail towards Shunes Buttress follwing a faint creek..At the large water holding take turn left and go up the steep but short hill. Turn right toward the wall and follow carins and a trail to the base..

To ascess Grasshopper, Rookie Crack and the other climbs near weeping rock, walk down the road ~10 min until you see a faint trail leading up through the scrub oaks (oppisit a pullout on a sharp turn)

One it is dangerously inaccurate, Two there is a well developed trail, starting at the grotto and following the creek up!
