Description
Hill Street Blues is an east-facing series of slabs on the hillside to the left (east) of Lost Horse Campground and the S Cracks formation. The crag features a nice selection of slabby cracks and face climbs from 5.4 to 5.12, some of which have amazing quality rock.
The somewhat lengthy approach means this area tends to see less traffic than other spots closer to the paved road.
Getting There
Park at the end of Lost Horse Road as for Atlantis, Super Heros wall, etc.
Walk the closed portion of Lost Horse Road until just in front of Lost Horse Ranger Station. Follow the left road to a fork. Take the right, more traveled fork and follow it uphill until you leave the road, heading for the S Cracks formation. Hike past S-Crack Formation and continue to the obvious slabby hillside which is Hill Street Blues.
The approach takes about 30 minutes and requires going up a hillside.
