Description
Some boulders and a couple TR's scattered around the Lodgepole area and near the end of the Tokopah Falls trail.
The boulders near Tokopah Falls are large talus boulders and would require some pads. There could be fine potential for some harder problems here.
The Trailhead TR's are very close to the campground and good for beginners, though setting up the anchor can be a bit tricky since its a big blank slab on top. Really long cord works for a tree and there may be a boulder to protect with too.
Its a great place to camp for sights in Sequoia, however you'll have to make reservations in advance for the busy summer months.

Getting There
Lodgepole is the obvious village with a market, visitors center and campground, as well as some trailheads, one to Tokopah Falls and the other to Twin Lakes/Wuksachi. Lodgepole village is two miles south of Wuksachi and 5 miles north of the Sherman Tree. There is also a trailhead for Wolverton/Sherman Tree (5 mi.).
Park at the market or the large overflow lot that is in the campground (they should let you through for hiking), for Tokopah Falls and Trailhead TR's. Park near the market or Visitors Center for Eric's Wide Crack.
