Description

This area is southeast and way up the hillside from the Rattlesnake Canyon parking area. You can plainly see this area from the parking lot;...it's way up there. Paul Borne did a few climbs up there awhile back, and they are supposed to be excellent, as well as challenging (5.11-5.12). There are also 3 moderate climbs too for the regular Joe.

Getting There

Park in the Rattlesnake parking, and start hiking up the main wash , but only for maybe 5 minutes. Soon you will see a major drainage/gully on the left; hike into this and then up for 45 minutes to an hour. The crag will be on your left.
