[Hide Comment] I am a bit confused by the directions to get to this boulder. So you cannot simply cross the powerline cut behind Red Sea, as indicated in the comp map here: imgur.com/SjDlixd ? Dec 17, 2020

[Hide Comment] No, when you walk towards the powerline cut from red sea, turn left and walk along the powerline cut. You will see texas revolution on your left in the woods. Nov 1, 2021
