Description
The large south and SE facing wall at the end of the Main Wall where the canyon opens up into the broad hanging valley of the south canyon. Perhaps the most impressive piece of rock in the canyon with public access - open, clean, big and highly featured.
Getting There
From the south side of the county road hike down the canyon trail (10 minutes); look to the right just after the canyon trail turns south again after bending east after the Main Wall - about 100 yards before you cross the dry stream bed - and follow a good trail down along the shallow creek bed at the base of the east facing lower cliffs. Continue following this trail around to the west for about 50 yards once the South Canyon opens up. A short spur trail cuts right and switchbacks up to the base of the South Buttress to the north.
