Getting There
Park at the "Wall of '90s", parking just west of Tunnel 2. Walk to the river, head downstream towards "Back of the '90s" approach gully. Head up the gully 75 yards, and head right below a cliff band. Hike up a steep, dirt gully, then traverse right along the cliff base. You will scramble up one short 4th class cliff. You can see the "Flood Wall" from the parking lot! The approach takes around 10 minutes.
