    Rock Face

A short trail that can be added on to Flank descents such as High Society and Working Class, and links quite nicely with lower trails such as AC DC and Middle Danimal. Can also be accessed from Lower Sproat. The trail contains several short fun rock rolls and a couple punchy but climbable ups.

Stay left at the split 20m in, as going right is for Yoda's.

Access Info

For those climbing Lower Sproat - on the right after finishing A La Mode.
For those finishing High Society or Working Class - go left along the High Society/Industrial Connector back to Sproat, then turn right on Lower Sproat for approximately 30m.

 Came in with hand saw just a couple hours after you Timmo and cleared out the tree. No more decapitation. Just the leftover snow to contend with now.

 Small tree down capable of decapitation. Easy to walk under. The snow patch in the depression at the bottom of the big rockroll is still there,...

 Okay, okay I was too optimistic there's big patches of snow in the low sections where you're definitely hiking a bike
