Warning Access Issue: Thompson Canyon DetailsDrop down

Description

The far left side of the tower as you are looking at it from the road. The North side of the tower starts at the far left with Technowitch and continues, ending with Jabberwocky and Rubber Mission/Full Rubber Mission; which bleed into the west face of the tower.

Shady most of the day (although it starts to get sun around 3-4pm in the summer) and can be windy.

Getting There

Short approach from the camping. Find the tower (as if you could miss it), and continue past it on the trail in front. The trail switches back soon and will put you right at the in front of the routes you wish to climb. Please stay on the trail.
