Description

Home to the El Capitan descent route. Oh... and there's some climbing here too.

Getting There

Park at El Capitan Picnic Area. Begin approach as for Manure Pile but cut left in small meadow several hundred feet before the pile onto a fairly well beat in trail. Follow the trail up through the forest, up a drainage, until fixed lines are probably encountered. 20-30 minutes.
