Getting There
First hike up on the usual trails to Basilisk wall, then walk WNW then then NW horizontally along the base of the low cliffs about 1200 feet / 360 meters, passing by the Revolutionary Ramparts West and Yankee Ramparts East areas, then passing under a gentler non-cliff "bowl", and on and on past the Vulnerability and Party Wall sectors.
