Description

Waterfalls from rain draining off the mesa have formed a small cul de sac in the side of the canyon. There are some tall scary problems with crappy landings on the really large rocks near the base of the cliff. Several smaller boulders and boulder stacks line the drainage back to the main wash with climbs as well.

Getting There

Park at Upper Pig Rock. A couple hundred feet upwash from the Patriot Boulder is a small drainage that joins the wash from the south side of the canyon. Hike up and right in this drainage that leads to the recess in the canyon rim.
