This place is pretty fun. Locals were quirky...My girls and I stopped here for an hour or so whilst jamming cross country. Albeit it was spring and not terribly hot, but we had a blast bouldering and I got a break from driving!

Just FYI, it is located on private property and did cost about 2-3 dollars to enter, about a year ago.

This place is for real. I live in the Twin Cities with loads of climbing and I found some problems that really pushed my limits. Climbed for a solid 3 hours. Could have spent the whole day there.

So true. This is an unheralded spot on the prairie deserving more praise than it receives. It could be the best bouldering in Kansas!
