Description Suggest change

Graveyard Boulders are a cluster of large granite boulders under the Coffin Crack area. There are many classic problems including the must-do "Canine Levitation".

NOTE: most directions are given assuming that upstream is East, downstream is West, ...etc.

Getting There Suggest change

Park at Second Buttress, and hike up river on the dirt road that will eventually turn into a trail. It is about a 2.5 mile hike. Alternatively, drive up river to mile marker 10, turn around, park on the other side of the road, and take the Tyrollean (or wade in between the upper and lower Graveyard areas if the tyrol is down) across the river right to the boulders.

Per Corey Blubaum: the best location for crossing is located a minute or two walk upstream (GPS coordinates: 38.741072, -106.728657).Crossing here during spring runoff is around mid-thigh while crossing at the parking lot is chest deep.
