Description Suggest change

Hot in summer, very climbable other three seasons. Some nice long routes. The two main identifiable features are the two water trough's / chimney features that split the face into about 1/3rd's. Many routes will be described referencing these features.

Descent:
a) Rappel "Expectations" route (70m rope will get you down from the top)
b) Walk off to the northeast

Getting There Suggest change

Go to the south face. It's obvious and an easy tromp up there.
