This area was preserved as open space in 2022 after a Prescott ranching family sold the land to the city, saving it from development. A private residence belonging to them is located south of these crags; please remain west of the notch, defined by a metal gate between Cathedral and Gorilla walls. Please do not enter or cross over the long, clearly signed private Storm Ranch driveway. Please exit using the same approach washes.
Description
Ten minute hike off Peavine, up a wash/canyon. Includes the Cathedral, Sundog, Gorilla and Sister walls.
Getting There
From the Peavine Trail (just south of Point of Rocks), take the Virginian Trail through a gate. Stay right, jumping over a washout. Use GPS to pinpoint canyon start.
