Description

A small formation that packs a punch. An unassuming crag with a number of great lines, the east side of King on the Throne is a nice spot with zero approach. Hard to miss, this blob of rock has a handful of unique features and lines with much character.

Morning sun / Afternoon shade.

Descent: Use a designated rappel on the west or down-climb the to the south.

Getting There

King on the Throne is located directly across from the entrance road to Parking Lot Rock. Follow the road through the City of Rocks and head toward the Breadloaves, just after the right-hand turn for Parking Lot Rock, park in a small pullout to the left.
