Description

This is a good area for warm winter days. Lots of good climbs and great place for beginners. During snowmelt rocks can and do roll off the top of the cliff.

Getting There

To get here either drive about 26 miles into the canyon, or go from Deadwood lead side and go to the Cheyenne crossing. Then drive about 3 miles until there is a parking area on the left. Park here and walk across the road; the trail starts right there.
