This side of the Zebra Cliff area is partially visible from the campground, with the largest feature, Such A Line standing out rather prominently. Morning/early afternoon sun, then shade for the balance of the day.

Park in the last loop in Jumbo Rocks Campground and walk south 1/2 mile. The Zebra Cliffs appear on the right and are the nice brown cliff band on the plateau.
