Vaquero Peak Rock Climbing

Drive 5 min past Sweet Rock and through the creek. At the top of the hill the road takes a sharp left turn. This is where you park. Park at the Slavin Gulch trailhead. After about 15 minutes of hiking east down the trail, it drops into to a creek that’s usually dry and passes the creek on the north. Leave the trail and continue east in the creek bed. After staying in the creek bed for 5 minutes keep a close eye out for another drainage coming in on the right. Follow this drainage until you’re directly below the formation. Figure out how to get on the ridge that comes almost all the way down to the drainage. Follow the ridge, staying on the north side up to the base of the rock.
