Description

Main Gate Rock is actually comprised of two separate crags - the main one is lighter colored and west-facing while the other is smaller and south-facing with brown rock; both are visible from the road if one knows where to look.

Getting There

Park in one of several turnouts 0.4 to 0.6 miles from the Park entrance and walk east for 5-10 minutes to reach the crag.
