Notes: "Not Nasty Rock" is quite a bit nastier than Nasty Rock, and was probably supposed to be the one named Nasty Rock. But the mapmakers screwed up, and we're stuck with their mistake. (NNR's name is unofficial.) Unfortunately, the whole area was scorched by the 2020 Beachie Creek Fire and is still closed to access as of January 2022.
