Description
Once in a great while, but only for a short time, this south-facing quartzite offers a few ice-climbing gems.
Highly conditions dependent, usually requiring snow on the peaks to provide the moisture and an inversion cycle to keep the bottom of the canyon co-old!

Getting There
Park at the large turnout on the east side of the road, just across from the Storm Mountain Picnic Area. Hike through the seasonally closed park to the base of the climbs.
Alternately (and the better option), park another 1/4 mile up-canyon, just past the bridge in the turn-out on the west side of the road. Hike west along the base of the cliffs.
