Sparerib Area Rock Climbing

From the parking lot, follow the two track into the single trail along the river for about 3/4 of a mile. Once you have left the rivers edge, take the first major trail to your right (should be a climbers access sign). Follow the switchbacks up past 1st and Blackline Buttresses, past the boxcar sized boulder, until you reach a small ridge line. From here you should first spy the Spare Rib formation. Hike another few hundred yards uphill, and veer left under the first major buttress you come across (Ashes of Stone). Follow the trail across the scree field to the base of Spare Rib Buttress.
