Access Issue: This is a historical site Details

There is limited access to this area because of its historical importance. There is no camping, overnight parking or fires allowed in this area. Please respect all pictographs (no touching, taking, or creating new ones) and Metates. Leave everything as you found it.

Description

Above the parking area is a granite shelf where a collection of house sized boulders have come together. In and around the boulders are many pictographs and metates and even more in the surrounding area. Please be very respectful of this place! There are climbs on the hill behind Council Rocks and in the canyon straight back there is some single pitch trad stuff that can be found in a guidebook.

Getting There

Above the parking areas is a granite shelf where a collection of house sized boulders have come together. In and around the boulders are many pictographs and metates and even more in the surrounding area. On this shelf are many trails that converge as you stroll south towards the back of the canyon. The trail will drop into a wash and then continue left of the wash. Shortly after the NOLS wall on the right, a sparsely cairned trail breaks off right through boulders and up slabs to reach the base of The Fist Pinnacle, and or past it to The Main Wall
