Description Suggest change

This is the first area you come to on the approach. Lots of boulders here with a high concentration of problems in a relatively small area. There are some really big boulders and some really small ones as well. Most of the landings are good, however. Since the bouldering lies on the south side of the ridge line, this area gets good sun.

Getting There Suggest change

From the parking, hike a couple minutes up hill. Once you reach the top of the ridge, you've arrived at the boulders!
