Description Suggest change

This wall has many shorter quality routes and used to be off the beaten path. There are west, south and east faces so you can easily chase the sun.

Getting There Suggest change

As of Oct 2021, getting to the trailhead only requires a standard high clearance (Subaru's) to where most park (AWD/4WD/4X4 not needed). To drive the additional 0.3 miles in the wash, you'd need lifted high clearance to get over big boulders in the wash.

This buttress is left of Six Star and right of Hong Buttress. Approach as for Public Service but park where the road forks left down a creek bed. Follow cairns up creek bed to a good trail.
