Description

This is a great, little, east-facing crag, which is what Ouray really needs. It gets great afternoon shade!

Getting There

Park at the pull off for Engineer Pass, or better yet drive up to the first switchback. Park here and look west across the creek - belay about 150' from where you park. If the creek is too high, walk up US 550 about 50 yards, and hike up hillside above creek for about 5 minutes and scramble down or rap in off of a stout pine tree.
