Don't climb on wet rock! Sandstone is a porous rock type that can absorb a lot of water. It can lose up to 75% of its strength while wet, making it easy to snap off holds and irreparably damage classic climbs. Wait 48 to 72hrs after precipitation. If the ground is still damp then the rock is still wet. A great way to check for precipitation history before traveling to Joe's is to go to this site-
and under "Data Charts" click the "Precipitation" tab. Make sure the surface wetness is 0 before climbing.
Description
The Gunshot boulder can be seen from the parking of the Boy Size area. This single boulder sits on the other side of the road, behind a few small trees. High quality rock with a handful of problems v5 and under. Usually won't see too many people over here. Seems like the side that has the good problems gets quite a bit of shade throughout the day.
Getting There
You will be able to see the boulder from the road. Just walk across the dried up riverbed and over to the boulder.
