Getting There
From Sky Valley main page:
"Drive up the Catalina Highway and park at the San Pedro Vista at mile marker 17.8. Take the hiking trail from the north (uphill) side of the lot. Hike the trail for 5-10 min a few minutes past the turnoff to Red Diamond Wall. The turnoff is not well marked, however, the top of the crag is barely off the hikers trail. Use the photos on this page to identify the crag (or buy the guidebook).
Leave the trail to access a small east trending ridge. Lower Sky Valley can be accessed by hiking right. Hiking right you'll find an easy 5th class descent gully between two pinnacles on the right crag. Descend here via 5th class down climb or rappel off a small tree. You may also hike down and around on the left side. All climbs for this area are listed in Eric Fazio-Rhicard's Squeezing the Lemmon III.
Note that some approach descriptions involve a schwack from the highway somewhere uphill from the San Pedro Vista. In light of the recent fire and the well established trail leaving the San Pedro Vista, this is no longer the preferred approach."
