Description Suggest change

Secluded crag near the north summit. Golden quartzite rock. Cooler temps than the lower crags

Getting There Suggest change

Follow the approach to get to The Bear and The Bubble, but continue on the dirt road. When you reach a 4-way intersection near the summit, take a right onto a short dirt road that will dead end quickly. Then find the climber's trail that traverses the ridge through shrubs for ~200 yards. You will reach a sling shot shaped tree and continue traversing until you find a place to drop down to the base of the crag.
