Access Issue: Don't climb on wet rock! Details

Attention:

Don't climb on wet rock! Sandstone is a porous rock type that can absorb a lot of water. It can lose up to 75% of its strength while wet, making it easy to snap off holds and irreparably damage classic climbs. Wait 48 to 72hrs after precipitation. If the ground is still damp then the rock is still wet. A great way to check for precipitation history before traveling to Joe's is to go to this site-

climate.usu.edu/mchd/dashbo…

and under "Data Charts" click the "Precipitation" tab. Make sure the surface wetness is 0 before climbing.

Description

The Big Joe boulder is a gigantic formation with a big steep roof that contains some classic problems. The boulder is just a few hundred feet up the gully from the parking area. In addition to the Big Joe roof problems there are some other great boulders up the gully.

Getting There

Big Joe lies directly across the street from the riverside area pullout. Walk up the hill about 50 yards and you will find the huge roof that houses numerous problems from V4-V10.
