Description 

The Atom Smasher Boulders are a cluster of HUGE cleanly cleaved boulders in the north Wonderland. They are near The Ivory Towers and the Timbuctu Towers. All routes are trad bolt protected. There are several classics and all routes get stars. The superclassic of the area is the often photographed arete Ionic Strength (5.12a ****). The route Gumshoe (5.10d**) is seen on the cover of the Bartlett guide to the Wonderland. Also recommended is Isotope (5.9**) for the classic moderate of the area.

Approach via the Boyscout trail. Approximately 3+ miles of flat walking, allow one hour for the approach.
