Buttermilk Stem Area

California > Eastern Sierra > Bishop Area > Buttermilk Country > Buttermilks Main

Description

A handful of boulders located in the center of the Buttermilks Main hillside.

For a creative challenge try the unique classic Buttermilk Stem v1, and the funky sit-start at v4. If you feel like your footwork could use some honing, stroll downhill to Rowell Rock and get your slab on some good highballs. Or for a good pump hop on and run some laps on the Pothole Traverse v1 on the next boulder to the east.

Getting There

Between the Cave Area and the Tut Boulder. (west of the Cave Area, east of the Tut Boulder)
