Description:
This is on the left edge of the face reached by the trail. The route is called the south face but it's actually more west-facing. Look for a pictograph about 25ft up that's where youu need to go! Climb broken rock to a chimney and belay on a big ledgeon the East face. A second easy pitch leads up a short jam crack thne over easy terraine to a horizontal crack which traverses around the North arete. The crux is an exposed mantle. no bolt to clip but hey it's only 5.6!To descend, make one single rope rap to the top of pitch two, and then a double rope rap to the ground. Congratulations-you just did the easiest route at Indian Creek!

not a whole lot of climbing for all the hiking to get there, but great scenery. The mantle is at least a 5.8 move.

Great Sunrise Watching Spot
Decided to climb this by moonlight and watch the sunrise. Awesome experience and easy climbing (only put on my climbing shoes for the mantle move). It was a bit chilly being april and exposed up high but overall it was fun. Note to those trying to find the approach. It's in a wide wash where the mesa comes closest to the wash.
