Description Suggest change

This area is a consolidation of all the crags and bouldering areas in the Plumb Line area. Many of the crags face South, and many of the boulders don't have great protection from the sun. The hike along the riparian area of the creek is always pleasant and a great place to view wildlife. 

This area includes:

The Acres

The Labyrinth

Hasselhoff area

Worm Drive

The Citadel/Citadel Crag

Short Wall

Getting There Suggest change

Depending on the crag or area of choice, you'll either drive on 700L or 700C. The 700L road has a locked gate due to erosion control. 700L is the best approach for The Acres, Worm Drive, The Labyrinth, and the Hasselhoff area.

700C is a quicker approach for Plumb Line, Citadel Crag, and Short Wall. The road can be in worse shape and requires a little bit more navigation for your first visit. Drive 0.6 miles on 700C to a parking area, and hike south.
