Description

The north face of Hodgepodge Rock is a good choice for toproping with groups and escaping the often blistering heat that gives Indian Cove the nickname "Indian Stove".

Getting There

From the main entrance road to Indian Cove, turn right along the Group Camp Road. Hodgepodge lies between Group Sites 4 and 5, 30' south of the road. The north-facing wall is heavily pock-marked.

Day-use parking is available near site #5.
