Description

This boulder has some of the best and prettiest rock in the area. I know that is a grand claim. Perched on the shoulder of Black Mountain, it also has spectacular views of the San Bernardinos and the valleys below. It gets early morning sun but is shady most of the day. The namesake problem is a must-do, So Cal classic.

Getting There

Follow a dirt road northwest from the parking spot at the entrance to Boulder Basin. After a few minutes you will reach a clearing where the road ends and the Black Mountain Hiking Trail begins (ends). Walk north up a small hill for 100 yards, then a short ways down the other side to the unmistakable Tour de France.
