Description

East face of the Snowshed Wall. Individual sections are numbered from left-to-right.

Getting There

On approach from the parking lot, when you reach the Snowshed Wall at its shady north face, follow the climbers trail left. It will wind away from the wall then back to it, scrambling/high stepping up some big rocks in a couple of spots before going to the east face.
