Description
Located to the climbers right of La Petit Cheval, this feature nearly blends with the hillside if looking at it straight on. The feature consists of three panels of roughly equal length.
Getting There
Other routes may exists, but the approach starts at the Hairpin and is "off trail" for the duration. Cross the small stream and head up the hillside NE. The approach start bushy but thins out a few hundred feet up the hill. Another brushy section as you cross the first of two drainages. A mix of traversing and uphill travel should keep the grade fairly mellow. We cut through the second (not brushy) drainage around 6100 feet through a mellow section. Once you see the full feature, you will likely be looking directly at the second panel. We dropped packs on the ridge just before dropping down to the start of the first panel, and this gave us a good reference point for the decent.
