This Buttress goes into the shade by 12:00pm everyday in the summer months. Perfect conditions for a summer wall.

Getting There

Approach from the Glacier Point parking lot under the apron. Head East toward the nature Center, and follow the access road up approx .5 miles to a wood bridge on Left, At the 2nd grouping of large boulders on your right, follow cairns that lead up the hillside directly toward the far left side of glacier point apron. A decent trail takes you to the talus field under the Jericho buttress, which is 100 ft left of the edge of glacier point apron.
