Description
This area is surrounded on 3 sides by cliffs and is shaded and cool most of the day. The routes are on the North side of a boulder outcropping and cannot be seen from the trail.
Getting There
From the North Side climbing area, hike up the trail on the east side towards the top of the cliffs. Instead of turning left towards the cliffs, continue straight along the Lake Loop trail, which is a well-traveled trail and is clearly marked with white diamonds on the trees. Follow this trail for about 5 minutes until you notice a sizable outcropping of rock off to your left (north). You will see a faint trail heading straight north towards the rock. Follow this trail to the large boulders and continue around to the back side where you will be greeted by some 35 foot walls and several bolted routes. From the main trail it is less than a 2 minute hike to get to the wall.
