From the car park go through the gate and head left up the hill slightly veering right at the top. You should then walk over some boulders in the first creek bed the come to another sandy creek bed, usually has standing water in it.

- Ethic: inherited from Beulah

First ascents are hugely appreciated and the object of climbing at Beulah. Scrubbing lichen and removing loose rock is encouraged but the line is drawn at chipping holds or glueing holds back on. If a hold comes off, please leave it off and climb what the rock affords you.
Bolting is also permitted with permission and as long as there is no available natural protection. For example this includes a 30m climb that requires 9 bolts and one cam or wire to protect. The adding of a 10th bolt for the convenience of not having to carry said wire or nut is not acceptable.
