Description Suggest change

A 500' wall with an easy approach that features mostly moderate multi-pitch routes. The wall faces northeast and goes into the shade before noon.

Getting There Suggest change

Park at White Rock Spring, a trailhead on the loop road a couple of miles past the Sandstone Quarry accessed by a short dirt road on the right.

A good trail (the Grand Circle Loop) departs the parking heading west.  Stay left as you pass a side trail to the spring in about a hundred yards.  About a half mile from the parking lot, the path nears a drop-off into the gully on the right.  Leave the main trail at this point and descend steeply into the drainage.  Turn left at the bottom and walk a short distance (maybe 20 yards) to where a trail climbs up the right side of the gully to a relatively level plateau.  Follow this trail west across the plateau (approx 1/8 mile) heading in the direction of the Angel Food Wall.  At this point the trail drops into another gully.  Scramble across some boulders and climb up the slope on the opposite side.  The main climbers' trail goes straight up the slope and ends up in the area of Tunnel Vision.  If you're headed to the Purblind Pillar area, it is worth branching right on one of the side trails before reaching the base of the cliffs.

Descend all routes by scrambling southwest over the rib of rock behind the top of Tunnel Vision and then down and left (southeast) in the gully behind the wall. A short rap or easy downclimb may be needed at the start. The trail turns left out of the gully at the base of the wall.
