Description

This is the left side of the large face that stretches from Second Thoughts to Gumby Saves Bambi, and despite being close to Hidden Valley CG and offering a number of fun climbs from which to choose it can be a good spot to escape the nearby crowds.

Highlights here include Bambi Meets Godzilla (5.8+), Finger Food (5.9) and Igor Prince of Poodles (5.11+).

The next section of the face to the right (northwest) is called Hidden Slab.

Getting There

Park in the large gravel lot north of Echo Tee, as for classics like Double Dip and EGBGs. From the righthand corner of the parking lot (way to the right of the outhouse), follow the trail and old road past the right side of Echo Rock (where Pope's Crack and Swept Away are located). Just as you turn the corner to the left, you'll reach the first route of this section, just right of TS Special. Approach time is about 10 minutes from the car.
