Description

The Five Alive Boulder is one of the first block you encounter when entering the area. Can be seen from the parking lot. Most parties walk right past this block on the way into the heart of the Trash Can Boulders. The arete and the East face have great problems that utilize sharp crystals. The North face hosts a great warm up on the right side of the face/arete.

Getting There

Walk about a minute from the parking lot. You can see this boulder from the lot as it sticks up above the rest.
