Description

A small sport climbing area with easy access. Not a destination in & of itself, but some fun climbing nonetheless. Grades range from 5.7 to 5.11?.

The rock here is a bit polished from use; I guess that means it is pretty clean as well.

Getting There

From Spearfish and the start of 14A, go approximately 3 miles into the Canyon, look for a turnout / parking area on the right. The last time I was there the turnout was the 3rd one encountered on the drive.

There is an obvious trail on the N side of the parking area, follow that for a minute until you reach the rock.
