Description

Very sunny crag, south facing overhanging wall that boasts 3 sport routes. Kind of a hard crag to get to, but is in the general vicinity of the butcher's island crag

Getting There

Hiking north on the long trail from the route 15 parking lot, walk through the woods for about 10 minutes until you get to this crest in the land. take a left along this crest and bushwhack trending left through the woods. you should end up at this large long slab with a tree on the right with old tat. Walk down and around the slab on the right then circle back around left through some small boulders into a massive fissure. All three climbs start out of this area.

Hiking south from the hogback parking pull off, the same thing as for hiking north, but hike south passing butcher's island.
