Description

This area has a lot of potential. It's Winslow Wall type rock with amazing features. It has splitter lines and is very secluded. No one will see you till you top out and most likely no one will even be around to see you top out. The Garden is on a shelf of sorts and was an awesome place to discover. I very much doubt man had ever been up there before, or at least i like to think that. Routes will be anywhere from 1-3 pitches long.

Getting There

From the parking area at the end of FS-9399S follow the carins and climber's trail to the creek. Walk down stream, crossing the creek a few times. At some point you are going to get your feet wet so enjoy walking in the water from the get go. You'll see Porter's Pillar split by two vertical parallel cracks on the north side of the creek. This Formation faces east. The Hidden Garden is located on the back side and is gaurded by a huge chockstone. Continue through the gate and you'll enter the Hidden Garden. It requires some scrambling and easy bouldering that is more of a grunt fest with a pack than it is difficult. There are still many lines to be done by those that love adventure and are not afaid of a heavy pack.
