Approach to The Jazz Workshop & Charles Mingus Boulder

Park at LMS and walk dowhill on the blacktop. When you get to the next guardrail that starts back up count 7 posts. Jump the rail and go east downhill. You should be right by a drainage culvert. Scramble down and you should be in the scree runway or just to the south of it. Head SE and a good animal trail should lead you to Monk, Mingus, & Max which are all steps from each other. This approach is less friendly for dogs than going to LMS and following the crag wall south, but a dog good at scrambling should be fine on an uphill exit (downhill dog scramble not recommended). Since this is where water drains be mindful of how slick the lichen can get scrambling down. We will identify a good Rappel point on the steeper walls to the south soon (2021 spring).
