Continue east & south on this graded road until the junction at Little Saucer Basin (mile 24 or so). Turn right (south) towards Burr Pass; veer right at the "Ekker Ranch - 7 miles" sign. After driving another 6.6 miles, veer right before Ekker ranch and head less than a mile to a junction. Turn left .5 mile past the Angel Point Road and drive just over 2 miles to the slickrock at the head of TCB North Fork; continue another 2 miles past the TCB head until you begin to pass Bull Pasture on your left. Park anywhere in here and head the canyon.

Comments:
  Tight & scrapy in places, some diagonals. Usually dry (class A) but could potentially fill up and require swimming so be wary of recent weather in the area. Some downclimbing, and, as usual for Robber's Roost, No bolts. Natural Anchors only, please.
