Description

River Boulder is a giant block sitting in the river close to CO Highway 82 with an offwidth to chimney route. During peak runoff (i.e., until June 15 or so) the start of the problem will be submerged.

Getting There

Park at the second pullout on Lincoln Creek road roughly 1000 feet down the road from CO Highway 82. Walk down and ford the Roaring Fork River to the obvious large boulder directly adjacent to the river bank.
