Description

This small, south-facing wall features great stone and has to be a strong candidate for best approach in the canyon (maybe slightly more “strenuous” than the approach to the little mill area). Because of the large trees, there’s often a mix of sun and shade on the wall.

Getting There

Park at the small pullout on the right (south) just down canyon from the Hell parking area. This is the same pullout that is used for Juniper and the easier, non-scree watchtower approach. Hitcher is the small outcropping on the north side of the road just down canyon from the pullout.
