Description Suggest change

Upper Skyline is nice and exposed - offers plenty of sun and nice views of town.The approach is similar to scrambling around on West Mountain, in Hueco Tanks. Crawl around through varying caves and corridors and you are likely to find fresh stone! Keep an eye out for prickly pear cactus, yucca and agave. Not all established problems are listed here although I’ll do my best to add them as I get additional media. 

Getting There Suggest change

Follow directions to the Skyline boulder - from this boulder continue hiking/scrambling up the mountain to a stand out patch of confer trees - Upper Skyline is a little further up the mountain up and to the right. GPS coordinate is accurate.
