Park at 4th of July creek. Head up 4th of July creek to its confluence with Godwin creek. Go up Godwin creek about a half mile to Jailbreak, the first major flow on your left in a large rock corner. Be prepared for the 700 foot vertical scree and devils club filled slope you have to climb from the creek up to the base of the climb. The final pitch of Jailbreak hasn't formed in several years, and the climb can come and go as it is near the ocean and is Southwest facing.
