More than just a pretty face, Rock Hudson offers a high concentration of moderate routes on well-featured rock. Prone to seepage in wet conditions, it’s best avoided until the long warm, dry spells of summer begin.

Access
From the Diamond Lake car park, walk up the west branch of the Rocky Mountain track to the steep wooden steps next to the cliff out left. Find the access track, which descends steeply left down along the base of the crag.
Alternatively, walk up the Sharon Stone access track and continue uphill another 50m to the base of Rock Hudson.
