Fragile Alpine Area MORE INFO >>> This is a fragile alpine bouldering area and following Leave No Trace principles is important. Never stash pads. Do not alter landings, chip or glue holds, or remove or alter vegetation. Walk on hard surfaces such as boulders or established trails. Store your gear on boulders instead of dirt or vegetation. Clean up spilled chalk and tick marks and brush holds. Keep your presence low key and unobtrusive. Pack out everything you brought and anything else that shouldn't have been left there. RMNP rangers are very aware of the impact that bouldering has on this environment. This information is a public crowdsourcing effort between the Access Fund, and Mountain Project. You should confirm closures, restrictions, and/or related dates. Keeping climbing areas open and conserving the climbing environment

Description 

This boulder is located in the heart of Lower Chaos, pretty much at the height of the boulders as they go back down to the lake. It is readily identified by the deep intimidating chasm that faces any climber tackling the namesake V10/V11 classic up its east face.

Getting There 

From the Warm-Up Boulder head straight west to the top of the boulders, before they slope down to the lake. The boulder should be readily visible--lots of chalk down in a crevasse.
