Description Suggest change

Large valley South of Idyllwild through which Highway 74 travels.  Please try to keep your car on public roads and do not disturb the locals. This area has potential for many first ascents on some of the best featured granite in So Cal.  The rock is like a hybrid of Joshua Tree and Tahquitz/Suicide.

Getting There Suggest change

Off highway 74 between Anza and Mtn. Center.
