Introduction[edit]
A quick outing near Verde Valley school. Two rappels drop this large alcove system off of house mountain.
Approach[edit]
Park on Verde valley school road near the parking pin. The alcove can be seen from the road. Hike up the ridge on the left/East side. When it gets too steep traverse over into the canyon. A small scree slope and easy scrambling will get you on top of House Mountain.
Once on top walk down into main drainage and R1.
Descent[edit]
R1 150' off tree LDC.
R2 35' off rock pinch bear edge. Aggressive overhang. Easy to bypass RDC.
Exit[edit]
Continue down the drainage to the road and your vehicle.
