Description Suggest change

A wall dedicated to the folks who fought hard to protect and care for Ferne Clyffe

Getting There Suggest change

The sixth wall you hike to from parking lot if hiking along the cliff line. 

From the main waterfall trail, take the trail to the right marked as "to Campground." This will bring you around a large boulder and up a small hill to the base of the Goreville Theatre Wall. Watchman's Wall is just up the hill, left of this.
