Description
The south side canyon gets shade in the afternoon and is a good place to escape the wind.
Getting There
You can approach from the south side of the canyon, then walk along the rim until reaching a prominent chimney. One can either descend this chimney(difficult scrabble) or walk past it ~50 feet for a more gradual decent. You can then scramble down the rim, given the most probably path to a good ramp along a clean wall. The ramp will take you to the bottom of the canyon or allow you to access climbs along the wall.
