Introduction

A quick, beginner-friendly route with a few rappels, some easy downclimbing, and great scenery.

Approach

Start at Mystic Th and work your around the twin buttes by breaking off right onto Hog Wash trail then connecting with Hog heaven. Leave hog heaven and follow the kml up the approach ridge. If you cross the prominent drainage that is Hog wash you have just missed your turnoff. a short scramble up the ridge will bring you to r1.

Descent

R1: 40’ off tree RDC.

R2: 40’ off tree. Bring along webbing as we used a releasable here.

R3: 80' from root system LDC.

Gear down after last rapp and follow the drainage to the trail you came in on.
