Access (Saul Krotki information): Park your car at Cedar Ponds lake, south of Sultan, Snohomish Co., WA. The road to the locality is now gated so you have to walk two miles to the 150' cliff. There is a map sketch in Jackson & Jackson (1974). The locality is also presented in Romaine (2007); his map has the cliff at 1.6 miles east of what he calls "Cedar Pond" which is "Cedar Ponds Lake" on the Sultan USGS 1997 map.
