Description

Part of the second boulder concentration area just up the trail from the first boulder concentration (Ram, Titan, Maximus). Impressive upside down prow.

Access issues inherited from Red Rock: Pet Wall

Most of the cliff and approach is on crown land. Some of the climbing is on private land -- the owner (John Jeffrey) has, historically, been friendly. "He likes to talk." Please be courteous and friendly if you meet him -- likely running around on a 4-wheeler.

There are, also, usually active nesting Peregrine falcons on the left side of the main cliff (left of the waterfall) -- avoid this area during the spring and summer months.

Approach

Follow the trail from the first boulder concentration (Ram, Titan, Maximus). The boulder will be on your left.

Ethic inherited from Red Rock: Pet Wall

Top Roping: Most/all routes have top-anchors. Please do not pass rope directly through the fixed gear for top-roping, use your own gear & only use the top-anchors for final lower or rappel.
