Description

A Northwest facing wall with a couple easier gear routes. Good for beginner leaders or for those looking to tick a lot of routes in a day. Descend by easy 5th scrambling off climbers left.

NOTE: This is the crag called Keystone Block in 50 classic climbs. That is about 75 yards further south.

Getting There

From Dissolution Rock walk the trail (Southwest) to an obvious opening in the rocks. Head up (North) and shortly thereafter turn right into a corridor with a tree.
