Getting There Suggest change

Park at the small pullout just past the Hell Cave parking lot (the pullout on the right immediately following the 11-mile sign).

Walk down the hill to where a pipe used to span the river; cross the river then head immediately left.

Follow the trail past a fire pit and up a talus slope. The Small Wall will be approximately half way up the talus on the left - continue up the slope until the trail cuts right through the trees. This is Forgotten Trails. Plan 30 minutes.
