Finding Harlequin Dome

From the parking lot at Tenaya Lake, cross Highway 120, hike up slabs to a short headwall. Continue up the trail to the base of the cliff. [1]

Harlequin Dome is directly across from Pywiack Dome. [2]

Rock climbing

Harlequin Dome is south-facing, thus warm, and is also steep. It has one-to-three pitch climbs, but the climbs wander a bit, and the approach is easier. [1]
