Description

The obvious mushroom-shaped structure a few hundred feet south from the Deil's Head. There are three established routes on the NE facing scoop.
Belays are not tide-sensitive, however, heavy rains or high seas can create small pools at the climbs' bases.

Getting There

Hike past marker 16 and the large inlet. The formation is directly under a grassy lookout point, complete with a bench.
When the Deil's head is visible from the trail, hike down and bear right along the cliffline. An easy scramble will put you at the base of the climbs.
