Description

Only about fifteen to twenty minutes from the Trail Split, this area has a lot of rock. Some of it is of good quality while others blocks seem to be exfoliating choss. Little has been developed here, and if it has, it is undocumented. The only established and documented line in the area is Jimmy Webb's first ascent named "The Trail of Tiers".

Getting There

From the Trail Split, take the left trail and hike about ten minutes until the trail veers left and crosses the Three Bridges/ 150 Foot Bridge. Do not cross these bridges, but instead continue straight. Cross a small drainage/ creek then follow a faint trail/ road for about five minutes. The hiker will see an old abandoned wooden fort/ structure down and to the left. Pass this structure and continue straight and slightly uphill. The faint trail eventually encounters a seasonal creek/ rocky drainage. At this point the hiker should be able to see large roofs and boulders appearing slightly further up the hill. Follow this drainage and head towards the triangular shaped roof which overhangs the hillside. This is not the first roof encountered along the hillside, but the second.
