Description Suggest change

The Shabazz Palace is a 240 ft tower tucked back in a short side canyon of Little Valley. There are no evident lines to the top aside from a striking system of cracks that split the overhanging southeast face of the formation.

Getting There Suggest change

Take the Gemini Bridges road up from 191 into Little Valley. Drive a short distance into the Valley and look for a short, broad side canyon on the right before reaching Pinky Tower. Park and hike along a closed mining road into the canyon, when the mining road starts to head uphill, drop into the wash and continue up canyon for a short distance. The tower will be obvious on the left. Approach time is roughly 20 minutes.
