Description

This small area has two main boulders, including the MSG Boulder, with several easy to moderates problems. It is a good place to end the day on your way out of the park.

Getting There

Drive out of the Valley on Northside Drive.

For Wood Yard West, park at the paved pullout on the left next to the river ~1.0 mile after the El Cap Bridge. Hike back up the road behind you and you will see the boulders shortly to the left.

You can easily approach either Woodyard area from either parking spots too.
