Crying Dinosaur
About Crying Dinosaur:
| Large pinnacle south of Siphon Draw trail in west face of Supes; once in Draw and past first pinnacle R of trail go SE to rock w/obvious large notch at top. It is a 200' foot high tower/fin which is supposed to resemble a dinosaur with an open mouth on the south slope of Siphon Draw. Bushwhack up the slope from the main trail thru the boulder field (there is a faint trail if you can follow it) on west side to get back around behind it (south side) between the pinnacle and the main wall. Drop your pack here, as this is the point where you will rappel back down. Gear up with two ropes and proceed up circling around the east end to access the north face and the obvious starting point. |
