Approach to The Lower Slabs

Hike the 247 Trail up Porvenir Canyon past a couple of extraneous, fancy bridges. After the second bridge, a suspension cable bridge, continue on the trail past a large-free standing old fireplace chimney on the left. Continue up trail to where the trail splits and comes back together on a rocky slope. Just beyond this spot, leave the main trail, heading uphill to the right following the line of least resistance. Look for cairns (still visible in 2018) and bushwhack your way up towards the slabs. The huge looming face above the slabs, Banshee Wall, will be visible. Your goal is the slabs directly below the Banshee Wall.
