It sits among a cluster of other climbing areas, with Concrete Jungle, The Nursery and Opera House, Hot Spot all about 0.1 mile away, and Lower Sullivan Canyon about 0.2 mile off. The area is known for its trad routes, and the climbing here is best suited to those who enjoy traditional styles. The routes run from about 5.6 up to 5.11, with the median grade around 5.10a. Among the named routes are Gunks Traverse (exit) at 5.6, Guillotine III at 5.10a and Jazz Roof (exit) at 5.11a. All are traditional climbs. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to visit. Typical averages from the nearby Chino Valley weather station show May highs around 80°F and October highs around 76°F, while July and August average in the low 90s. For a change from the rock, Gold Tank Trail is about 7 miles away, and Prospect Point is roughly 8 miles off.
