Description

One of the gems in the often deserted East Gate area a mere stones throw away from the "loved to death" gate boulders. Quartz monzonite rock, and overall of better quality than the gate boulders!

Getting There

Park at the Gate parking lot and head up the trail that departs from the north east corner and into the forest. Head up slope a bit and then traverse east for approx 50 yds, and then head up slope again, aiming for a cluster of small maple trees growing next to an overhanging arete like feature on the west side of a large boulder that has a huge south face slab above a steep slope. 2 min approach.

Sick problem! A left toe hook really locks you in through the slopey section before making that big right throw!
