April Fools Wall

Utah > S Central Utah > San Rafael Swell > San Rafael Swel… > Buckhorn Wash > Lower Buckhorn

Description

A sweet chunk of rock just down sream from Pine Canyon on the left. The actual crag as described in "Desert Rock - Wall Street to the San Rafael Swell" is a "small" looking stump formation on the bottom of a rather large 400' wingate wall.

Getting There

Parking exists on either side of the road about 0.5 mile down from Pine Canyon. The trail ascends an obvious rib directly to the base, and is well cairned albeit rarely traveled.
