Description
This is exclusively a bouldering spot. The rock quality is quite good (rough but not pointy) for the climbs listed here, although some others to the west are covered in dirt and low quality.
The area is mostly sunny and not very windy. Sometimes after a good rain the previous day, a stream will flow through the arroyo which makes some (but not all) of the routes inaccessible.

Getting There
Park for the dilapidated playground off Ridgeway street, pass through a fence and down an old dirt road to the bridge on your left. Takes about five minutes.
Alternatively, and a bit longer, park at Aspen school, or on the road just south of it. On the right (west) of that road there should almost immediately be an obvious marker reading "Homestead Trail". Follow the trail as it goes by houses, then turns right and begins to descend into the canyon. Once you are near the bottom of the canyon, the trail branches into left and right - go left for a few meters, and then turn right. If you follow this for a short time you should see a pedestrian bridge. Cross the bridge and descend into the (hopefully dry) arroyo beneath it. The boulders should be obvious then.
