Echo Cliffs, as seen from the Mishe Mokwa trail. The approach trail reaches the Grotto first. The other walls are approached by hiking right (south) along the base of the cliff.

Expect to find this rope/rebar ladder after Treasure Towers. After the ladder, you'll find The Alcove, Kamikaze Cave, Dream Street, and Easy Street.

After the ladder, go through a narrow tunnel to enter the Kamikaze Cave. Once through the tunnel, I felt we had entered the real climbing of Echo.

It is a long way from The Grotto over to the Kamikaze Cave. You're getting close when you reach the four rung downclimb.

The right way to go! The sign off of Yerba Buena Rd

Looking down Annihilator, 5.11d. The chalked holds (left) are on Immaculate, 5.12a. Both are just past the Kamikaze Cave on the next section of wall called Dream Street. The sharpness of the holds on upper Annihilator made me think Immaculate looked a lot nicer.

Spring flowers with Easy Street in the background.

VCSAR Copter at Echo - Be careful out there.
