Description

The largest face on Rubicon Dome, featuring a bunch of cracks on the west side and a slick slab on the south side. It can be seen from almost any end of the lake.

Getting There

You can approach the base of the dome by walking past Lower Buttress and Fun House to a creeklet, and following the creeklet up the mountain and to the right. Alternatively, you can climb to the top of Lower Buttress and zig-zag your way up to the base.
