Slick Rock Rock Climbing

From McCall, ID, follow the road east to Ponderosa State Park (big green sign). Skirt around Payette Lake and the golf course. Follow Lake Drive until finding a gravel road that turns off to the right. The road runs past Little Payette Lake (Road #48 - Lick Creek Road).

Travel ~8 miles on Yellow Pine Road to a creek crossing. Camp there at primitive Lick Creek Campground (free). A beautiful stream running through the campground is a great water source, although purification is advised. Slick Rock is only 1-2 miles further, and is very obvious from the road. The log jam cannot be crossed as of June 2023. There’s a pullout just downstream of the standard pull out where the log jam was. With a trail down to a log across the river. From there, head up out of the river bed and into some granite rock flats. Head nearly parallel to the river taking the path of least resistance to meet up with the old trail. -head too far uphill and you'll find yourself in a brush gully.
