Description
This area contains some of the cleanest rock at Devils Nose starting in the Grand Corridor East face, a fifteen foot wide chimney and heading south to the end of the rock. Toward the outer end of the Grand Corridor the rock is 51 feet tall. There are a few moderate verticale crack lines and the face offers countless routes in the 5.8 to 5.11 range. Roughly sixty feet south of the corridor the rock quality becomes more loose and broken. Below is the area division photo

Getting There
The base of the rock can be approach from either end of the area.
On the North end of the area, a more risky approach would be to scramble down the Grand Corridor at a climbing level of about 5.1 this steep chimney will contain slippery leaves and pine needles, to be used at your own discretion.
Approaching from the South end can be done by following the main trail until you can find the first possible break in the cliff that allows you to step over to the east face. Followed by ducking around some small tree branches and down an extremely steep dirt slope for about 6 feet. Then you can scramble along the base of the wall on a shelf containing another vertical drop of about twenty feet or so.
