The main face

Description 

Hard to miss this boulder if you are walking along the road. A few tough slab climbs with the always fun Wave Traverse on the back side.

Getting There 

From the main parking lot, walk past the main gate and take the right fork as though heading for the warm up area. Once you are past the pond on your left, walk along the trail on your right that runs along the shore (opposite of the warmup area). You'll pass the suicide boulder and it is the next big boulder on your left though you probably already saw it from the road.

To get to the Wave, walk around the boulder or scramble through the little chimney/notch on the right side.
