Access Issue: Yearly fire hazard closures Details

Parking on Grizzly Peak Blvd is forbidden from April 15 to November 15 every year during fire season.

Description

This moderately sized rock holds several excellent traverse routes just uphill and into the shady trees from the main rock. About 20 feet long and climbable for the first 8 - 12 feet, this rock holds some excellent problems in the V0 - V5 range.

Although the main rock sometimes is covered with poison oak, the intense shade from the surrounding trees keeps the ground around this rock covered with leaves, and fortunately not covered in poison oak.

All routes walk off the back.

Referred to as part of the “Rose Boulders” in the 2022 Golden State Bouldering guidebook.

Getting There

Apporach time:

Nov 16th - April 14th: 0 minutes
April 15th - Nov 15th: 5 minutes, since you'll have to walk down grizzly peak about .2 miles from the next parking pullout.

From the main parking pullout or entrance path from Grizzly Peak Ave, walk uphill on the left path around the main rock.The diagonal traverse rock will be right in front of you 20 feet ahead.
