Conglomerate Spire (Sycamore Canyon Wilderness)

A beautiful full day adventure hiking up then dropping off 1700ft from the top of Black Mountain into Sycamore Canyon 1.5 miles upstream from Parsons Springs. Named after rappel two and the huge conglomerate cliff band pour off and single conglomerate spire at 5300ft in elevation.

Leave as early as possible. Hike up Parsons Trail until you veer off to the right up a side drainage then follow the track up and up to the drop-in point.

Consisting of 7 to 8 rappels before reaching the bottom of Sycamore Canyon. The lower end can be somewhat annoying due to some bushwhacking but that's to be expected and typical for the area.
