Description

This is the large, mostly west facing boulder to the south about 100 yards from the main uphill boulders (A-Frame and Javelina Cave). There are two boulders here separated by a crevice large enough to walk through about 20 feet high. The rock is of the same porous type as others found in this area and the faces provide some fun but R rated high ball problems and couple traverses on the backside boulder.

Getting There

From the main uphill boulders (A-Frame and Javelina Cave), follow the western side of the ridge line for 100 yards to the south. Alternatively, one can go directly uphill (east) from the parking lot and get there via bushwhack in about 5 minutes.
