1. East of Trail Boulders

Wisconsin > Baraboo Range > Devil's Lake > Devil's Lake Bo… > E Bluff > E Bluff North > 6. Monolith Ridge

Description

This area has some really good highball boulder problems, just off the East Bluff Trail before the Monolith Rocks. Best know problem may be Slope of Dadaism, but all are really good.

Getting There

When hiking south on the East Bluff Trail before you reach the Monolith Rocks, you should see a lower cliff band of quartzite just off the left side of the trail. Hike down and the problems all face north.
