Access Issue: Private Property - Access Sensitive - Flooded parking area/campground and it remains largely inaccessible at this time.
Details
The cliff band is on private property and has recently changed hands, which created some potential access issues. There are a number of "No Trespassing" signs on the land.
The owner of the property is alright with climbers being there. However, the "No Trespassing" signs will stay up, and are only there to "protect himself."
The landowner has also said that he is very pleased with what he's found out about the climbers and the etiquette of the area. He researched it online and found that we've always been very respectful of our privilege to climb there and that we value that privilege greatly.
With that being said, Bozoo is fair game for climbing. AS ALWAYS: BE RESPECTFUL OF THE PROPERTY AND THE AREA. NOT DOING SO COULD RESULT IN ITS PERMANENT CLOSURE.

Description
One the best problems at Bozoo can be found here, "Flinger".
At this time there are no other developed boulders besides Flinger that I know of, but there is potential in the area and along the cliff line. I am creating this as a sub area to leave room for the future development.

Getting There
Easiest approach for your first time is to head to Simpson's wall (maybe do Grounds Keeper Willy to warm-up) then walk down the cliff a few hundred yards to pass a talus field. Walk along the next small cliff for a hundred feet. Then turn away from the cliff and look down. You will see an unassuming boulder down the hillside 100 feet or so. On the downhill side you will find a few great problems.
