Location
On the arete that rises from R to L below, and to the left of, the huge red rock slab exposed by rockfall.Joe writes:"If you hike to the big Boulder at the stream crossing before the bottom of Fatmans Misery on the Loop trail. Walk around the Boulder on the left and step over the stream and follow the flagging tape and cut trail to the rockslide. Hike to the top of the rock slide to the base of the arete on the left."
Protection
