Description Suggest change

There are several fine creekside boulders in the vicinity of the Grasshopper Point day use area, providing many bouldering opportunities on good black and tan sandstone. This is a great fall/winter spot - summer can be too hot and spring runoff blocks access to some of the problems. Bring a swimsuit and take a dip in the creek as long as you're here!

Getting There Suggest change

Park at Grasshopper Point and walk down to the creek. The boulders are in various spots.
