Description Suggest change

One of the safest bolted areas you will find in the Meadows.

This area is about a half mile south of Medlicott Dome.

From Hwy 120, this is the lower formation seen to the right of Medlicott.

Getting There Suggest change

Park about 1/10 mile east of the Knobs. There is now only one (paved) parking area, east of the road.

From the parking area head away from the road eastward on a climber's trail to the obvious maintained trail (Tenaya Lake trail), turn left, hike a short distance keeping an eye to the right on the look out for a series of rock slabs.

Follow a boulder bounded trail from the main trail starting at the open, slabby region. The trail leads into the woods off the right side of these slabs and is clear, obvious & easy. Skirts to the right of the swampy region. Below the dome, at the large slab, follow cairns up and left, aiming toward the left-center of Dozier Dome.

The new approach trail is wonderful! It used to be a sloggy mess if you got into the swamp.

20-25 minutes; very straightforward.
