JAWS BLOCK
Jaws Block is by far the best and most popular area for beginners. The climbs are short and the holds are huge. Most climb the valley side but the namesake (Jaws) is in the corridor running between Jaws Block and West Side Rock. It's an easy walk up to the top but you'll need lots of webbing to set top ropes. There are no bolts nor hangers anywhere on the rock.
From the parking area, walk toward the valley to the Fireplace, turn right and follow the trail into the flat open area, Jaws Block is on the left running the length of the open area. Also enter the corridor at the north/west end of Jaws Block starting almost in the parking area.
