Description

Absolutely bomber granite with 4 stellar lines. I found this boulder on a spring bush-wack descent from skiing parachute couloir up canyon. The boulder has some unique features for the Mammoth area. The standout problem is Chattanooga Hustle.

Park at Sherwin Lakes Trailhead, take the trail (red circle at image top) until the red circle at the bottom of the image. Vaguely follow the arrows to get over the steep hillside then go across to the boulder, about 15 minutes after you leave the trail.

[Hide Comment] I had a bit of trouble finding the boulder since one set of GPS coordinates on MP are incorrect. Make sure you use the ones in the area description, copied here:
