About Hideout Hollow:
| A magical place built of bomber Atoga Sandstone. A large bluffline arcs off from either side of a 30 foot waterfall over a cave. Also, there are large (30 feet or more) boulders scattered inside the half-circle area made by the bluffs. Access is still a little tricky, be sure not to cross over onto private property. The best resource is to get the USGS 7.5 minute "PONCA" quadrant. It shows boundary lines. This area is still very undeveloped as a climbing area. First Ascent opportunities abound. The guidebook is in the works. |

Stay straight on this dirt road until you come to the sign for the Schermerhorn trailhead. Take this trail (only 2 miles) to the waterfall. Walk across the top of the waterfall and through the cut-back cave. Once on the other side, third class down using large boulders. Follow the bluff line around in either direction from the waterfall or on the boulders inside the area. |
