    Description 

    Nice and shady in this area all the time there a few really good problems and probably more to be done you just have to look around.


    Getting There 

    After the boulder field/talus that you cross after the blackout boulder continue to walk on the trail a ways until you see an opening underneath a very very large bunch of boulders that form a little cave. inside are a number of problems that are fun.

    Ack! Took me forever to find this. Here's some directions:

    After you make the cross over the tallus, the trail dips down quite a bit, then raises back up. Exit the trail East (left) just before the trail starts to raise back up. If you get to the turnoff for Pride, you've gone too far.
