Description

Vastly different in character from the slabby west face is this steep yet featured wall with a handful of sport climbs from 5.11a to 5.13b. Father Figure (5.12d) is the standout and deservedly popular.

Getting There

Approach as for Lakeside Rock - West Face and then cut right scrambling up a slab with boulders along the south side of the formation to reach the wall.
