Description Suggest change

Centered around the Cap Rock parking area and loop trail is an excellent and extensive circuit of moderate (V0-V3) boulder problems, including many slab problems. Also in this area are some of the parks most classic bouldering lines - Pumping Monzonite (V7), All Washed Up (V6) and Soar Eagle (V8) as well as the more approachable Picture Perfect (V1).

Getting There Suggest change

Boulder problems abound - either just explore or use the Gingery book or RTM's newer book with more extensive directions and more photos of boulders/problems!
