Description Suggest change

Southeast facing wall under 120 with very cool and hard routes. In the sun until 1:30ish. Follow the directions in the Reid/Falkenstein or Mammoth Rock Climbs book...The deproach is not as bad as its written up or looks (the descent to Third Pillar is WAY worse).

Getting There Suggest change

Park at a pullout 8.2 miles up 120 from 395. Just east of the green bridge. An old info display entitled "Don't Fence Me In" confirms you're at the right spot. Hop the guard rail and descend via a steep climber's' trail. 10 minutes to the first climbable route on the first wall (the Tioga Wall), 20-25 minutes to the furthest routes/walls.
