Essential crag checks
Access, closures, permits & safety
Start at Eagle Falls Trailhead on Highway 89, follow the Eagle Lake trail and cross the lake outlet. The established climbers' approach then climbs through talus toward the ridge and buttress; carry navigation for the upper cross-country section.
Parking capacity, fees and road access can change. Confirm current conditions before departure.

The approach includes loose talus, brush and exposed scrambling beyond the main lake trail. Assess the chosen route and descent and allow time for the long return; do not confuse the buttress with the nearby lower cliffs.
Closures and permit rules can change without notice. Recheck the official land manager before departure.

About this crag
A specialist approach account describes roughly 1.5–2 hours of hiking, talus and scrambling; it is not a short roadside top-rope outing. Historical parking prices are omitted because current charges were not verified.
Recommended equipment
Bring equipment appropriate to the climbing style and local conditions. A helmet is strongly recommended.
