Description

A collection of mostly short, mostly steep cliffs of amazing rock quality. Grades from 5.7 to 5.13 sport, trad and mixed gear alike. When you hike up you arrive right at Cavern Cliff which is quite a sight to behold.

Getting There

From the Yellowjacket Boulder. Continue following the trail up hill above it. There will be a trail split a few minutes up from there, take the right fork. Walk another 5 minutes (past some large boulders right on the trail) when the trail levels out look for an open area. If you are headed to Cavern Cliff Area take a climbers trail to the left just after walking between 2 large trees forming a sort of gate. Follow this trail to the Cavern itself. You will know it when you see it.
