Climb a fun sequential crack feature to a horizontal crack and top out straight above. Bring a brush and watch for crumbly rock. May have been climbed before.

Fun and varied climbing with crimps, cracks, jugs, and slopers. Exciting direct finish. More traffic should clean this up.

 Variation: At the horizontal crack halfway up, traverse left and exit up a slight overhang over a licheny face. Really cool. A direct start to this point still needs to be done. Calloused tips would be helpful as the start climbs up some sharp crystals. Blew my tips after a few trys.

This area features one boulder about 50 ft off the main trail that has some fun moderate climbs with exciting top-outs high off the deck. The Grand Stone staircase itself is pretty disappointing for climbing, so this boulder should be easy to spot.
