Description Suggest change

The Moon area offers the best bouldering at the Big Waters. Drive right up to the beautiful slab face of the "One Small Step Boulder" and work your way east or west through some great streaked blocks.

Getting There Suggest change

The Moon Area is the boulder field located at the southern tip of the very prominent mesa terminus called Haycock Point you see about 1.5 miles to your north just after crossing Wahweap Creek.
